In my form there is text box that allow multi value input with a delimiter

example "AU,RU,SG,US"

user can add in multi value..

May I know if there is anywhere site that shows UI input example for such data?

currently we are using a popup bean with 2 list box, one list box contains all the available data, another for selection.

I am wondering if there are other better approach.

Added explanation: There is a textbox with a button to click.

and when a user click the button, a popup will appear.

The popup will have 2 list. List one shows all the available values to choose from and user can move the another list box.

The user will click update button once he/she finish his selection and it will update the text field with the selected data.

My question is what other ways of UI presentation are there available for multi-value selections. In future the values might be display in a Tree and user have to select some of the nodes.

If you are working with richfaces, probably you can use list-shuttle or various other rich selects available.

Coming up to UI perspective it is more soothy and apt to selection as user can view the options (s)he has selected all at a time.

Another ways or options that can be is have a checkbox in combo and let user select multiple checks from the combo selection. Example here. Which is more convincing I believe if you wish to have a compact and friendly UI.

Or if you have limited number of options then simply place checkboxs against number of options to select.
