[EP-tech] Advanced Search Page render of large number of choices (such as language).

All,

 

I’ve been asked to find out if there is a “better way” to render a field that has a large number of choices such as the language field that may have upwards of 140 languages all listed on the advanced search page as each individually with a check box.   What I understand we are looking for is if there is a way to have this as a single select drop-down box or a multi-select drop-down box so that the languages field doesn’t take up so much real estate on the page.

 

Any hints suggestions would be welcome.

 

Thanks.
