the issue is we were missing a "autocomplete='off'" attribute, meaning the browser itself was adding the dropdown. As an aside, general usabililty guidelines say we should not use autocomplete=off since it's subverting the standard control, so we need to revisit this control. Next deploy the autocomplete will be off and only one dropdown will be shown. cheers Chris Maunder
