The good guys at P’unk Avenue Window have devised a nice solution by the name of pkMultipleSelect. They detail everything about pkMultipleSelect on their site and give a pretty nice demo. After giving it a go, the possibilities of this when coupled with a little CSS action really make me really, really happy. Plus, it’s been tested in all the mainline browsers like IE7, Firefox and Safari. It’s also been tested for not-so-mainline browsers, and ones designers don’t like very much, too.

I think this is a lot more usable than a plethora of checkboxes or the multiple select menus in my opinion. I’ll definitely make sure I implement this in my next project.
