Topic: SELECT ALL option in drop down listbox

[fifimtwana]

Hey guys

Can someone please help me with this chllenge im facing...

Here is the thing, I want to be able to have an option "Select All" under the dropdown list.
The select all option must allow a user to select all the names of students (which are already listed in the drop down list) and book all of them at the same time for leave or sick leave or offsite work.

Thanx in advance..
