I'm having a huge problem here.. I'm working on a scoring program for sports, and when you input the scores, it's going to take you to another page where you enter more info about it.
It draws this in a big table, and fetches the players names/etc out of a mysql database and tosses them into form select elements in the page.
This works fine in a small scale, say, when 20 or so of these rows are displayed.
When I try putting in larger scores, and end up having 40 or so rows of form data (approx. 160 select boxes), it -totally- screws up the browser. Form boxes disappear, but sorta reappear if you scroll up and down, but not always in the right place.. they begin overlapping, etc, and just making the form a plain mess. I've experienced a problem similar to this when I had moderation turned on for Slashdot.. the select boxes would scroll all over the place after a while, or just not display at all.
I can't find ANYTHING on the web about this. I tried throwing 100 form boxes onto a page with no other content, works ok.. then put them into a table, works ok.. it just seems to be the browser is running out of memory dealing with all these select boxes. Is there any way around this, anything I can do?
