I've come up with a simple solution that allows <select editable> to degrade gracefully in Web Forms 2.0. Just put the extra text box in a repetition template that has zero instances: <select editable="editable" name="thing"> <option>1</option> <option>2</option> <option>3</option> </select> <span repeat="template" repeat-start="0"> or you can type a new entry: <input type="text" name="thing_new"> </span> In non-WF2 user agents, "editable" is ignored and the <span> is rendered, allowing the user to put a custom entry in the text box. In a WF2 UA, only the <select> is shown, but it's rendered as a combo box. (Finally something good comes out of this stupid template defect!)
