Hey Colin,

Your "how's the HTML" question really did the job:
<div> tag not allowed within the scope of a <form> tag.

Which means the my .erb can't have:

<% form_for(@expense) do |f| %>
[snip]
<div id="vendor_droplist" style="display:none">
<%= select_tag "test",
options_for_select(@current_vendors.collect { |v|
v.nickname }),
{:multiple => true} %>
</div>

More importantly to me, it means that:

<input onclick="page.toggle :vendor_droplist;" type="button"
value="ShowList" />

won't work inside that form.

I'm going to post a new question on how to fix this while I scour the
documentation to figure it out myself.

Again, thank you for sharing your expertise with me,
Richard
