Hi All,

I am working with CB1.3.1 and have created a registration form which contains dropdown lists (single select and multiple select) with a lot of selection values. The list is in fact a structured list such as
1. category
1.1 sub category 1
1.2 sub category 2
1.2.1 subsub category 2.1
1.2.2 sub subcategory 2.2
etcetera

It would be good if this structure would be reflected in the layout of the values in the dropdown list, but I noticed that leading blank spaces are ignored, and that I cannot include a 'tab' space in my selection list.
Option is to add the numbers 1. ; 1.1 ; etc in the dropdown, or to put some characters in front such as
.category
..sub category 1
..sub category 2
...subsub category 2.1
...sub subcategory 2.2
but of course, not very esthetical, and these characters are also stored in the DB which then looks strange in any reporting afterwards...

Is there a way to have a multi-level dropdown list in CB? Moreover, in fact, users should always select a value in the lowest level of the structure (most detailed option) and selecting a 'title' should be disabled... :/

Looking forward to any suggestion :)
