Select Examples: In the first example all three options may be chosen but bananas are selected by default. The next presents a pop-up menu, presenting a single choice and the third presents a pull-down menu, scrolling the items (showing four at a time), and allowing multiple choices. A table is used to control where the instructions go relative to the selection boxes and to spread them out across the page.

Textarea: Allows a relatively large amount of text to be entered, including line breaks. Here the instructions are placed above the box.
