I'm not sure what you are calling an "editable combo box", but would <datalist> [1] fit the bill? [1]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Elemen

- GuB-42 4y agoYes. But full support is relatively recent and for some reason, it doesn't behave like a typical editable combo box: it looks like a regular text field until you interact with it, while most GUI toolkits display them as a text field within a combo box frame, with the down arrow button always visible. Unless there is some special styling, why not use the OS default look and feel? Still a step in the good direction, but why so late? and why the nonstandard behavior?
