I am looking for documentation on how to make a select box? This would be similar to html tags:

Code:

<select><option></option></select>

What kind of control would I use for this?

You could look at what LibAddonMenu does to create its dropdown menu.

No, that's rather hackish, actually...

I'd look at this thread: http://www.esoui.com/forums/showpost...6&postcount=27

I still prefer the vanilla combobox template, as it doesn't come with an extra label that you may not want:

lua Code:

local dropdown = WINDOW_MANAGER:CreateControlFromVirtual(parent:GetName() .. "DropdownFilter", parent, "ZO_ComboBox")
 
parent.dropdown = dropdown
dropdown:SetHidden(true)
dropdown:SetAnchor(LEFT, self.control, LEFT, 10)
dropdown:SetHeight(24)
if(dropdownWidth) then
    dropdown:SetWidth(dropdownWidth)
end
local comboBox = dropdown.m_comboBox
comboBox:SetSortsItems(false)
 
for _,v in ipairs(callbackTable) do
    comboBox:AddItem(ZO_ComboBox:CreateItemEntry(tooltipSet[v.name], function()
            OnDropdownSelect(v)
        end))
end
