[cla][patch][test] Select: build new HTML select widget

[bill]

Make a select widget similar to the browser's or OS's select boxes. It can have fancy HTML in the drop down list, and the selected item's fancy HTML gets copied to the left of the arrow when you select it.

Probably won't have filtering by typing a string, since there's no input box, and since the drop down items can be arbitrary HTML, including a simple image.

The data list will always be short (usually <10 items) and will usually be embedded in the HTML file like a normal select, so not sure if we even need a dojo.data interface.

I have created a "DropDownSelect?" widget which does what I think you are looking for. I will attach a patch for it (in dojox.form.DropDownSelect?)

Let me know if this is useful, or if there is anything else that would be needed for inclusion (maybe it can go into 1.1 as a part of dojox.form - and get moved into dijit.form over time...)

atch which adds dojox.form.DropDownSelect?. It handles rich text as desired.

Updated file with better tests (images, different font sizes, line breaks) and a fix to onChange not firing.

I looked over the code very briefly, didn't notice any glaring issues, and the demo looks great. Assigning to phiggins to check into dojox for now (if it meets his approval).

(In [13085]) fixes #3270 - another awesome patch from nathan toone - proxy commit DropDownSelect? into dojox.form
