Editable dropdownlist

Angel Titus

I need the dropdownlist in the web application to be editable,
the DDL should be similar to combobox of windows application.
The dropdownlist should be in such a way that the user should be able to enter new value
that is not present in the ddl.is there any way i can do it?

is it possible to use System.windows.forms and inherit the combobox in web application?
I have tried all means but i need to do this in web application using c# dotnet 3.5.

Accepted answer
You can do this two ways either develop custom control with asp.net or

just place a Text Box and a Button with Drop down list and Store all Dropdownlist Items in XML File ..Now when user Type Text and Press Button it will add New item in XML File and Drop down Will Load items From that XML File ..

Second way will be easier :)
