In the hindsight, does sound like a bad idea.

Better to have pull-down menu with multiple selections.

Is it possible? Havn't had that much experiance with HTML, but sounds good
if it is possible.

Or, can we introduce a hide-able (default hidden) div element that contains
all these check-boxes (Javascript). I know we don't use JS right now, but
just an idea.
