Drop down list

Hi

I have created a form in Contour 3.0 and have a dropdown list connected to an SQL database.

What I would like is for the user to select an option, but if its not in the list be able to edit the text field and put in their own text input.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Hey Lee,

Maybe you can use a conditional field for that, add an option like 'Other' and then setup a text field that will only be shown if the option 'Other' is selected

Other option is to create custom fieldtype that consists of dropdown and textbox

Here is an example of a razor only fieldtype http://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-pro/contour/40417-Creating-custom-FieldType-with-multiple-SingleLine-textboxes
