Thread:Talk:StyleGuide/Forms/Checkboxes vs. Multi-Select/reply (4)

That article listed disadvantages of asmSelect as well. Requiring js, and usability disadvantages where after selecting one item, you have to go back to the select and start all over trying to find out where you were in the list.

IMHO, if we have a form in MediaWiki where we have enough check boxes that you would suggest using asmSelect as a fix for it, then what we really need to do is completely re-think the form. Not add some half-usable band-aid on top of it.
