Question

how would I transform the below code into a <select> <option> drop down? Currently when I select any one of the links below it filters out a list only showing the selected items.

<span>Filters:</span>
<a class="button" href="#all">All</a>
<a class="button" href="#settings">Settings</a>
<a class="button" href="#categories">Categories</a>

trying to do something like this

<select>
<option class="button" href="#all">All</option>
<option class="button" href="#settings">Settings</option>
<option class="button" href="#categories">Categories</option>
...

If i understand it correctly you want your link to behave like a select box. http://jsfiddle.net/aatZJ/1/
