Preamble

We need to load parserPopUp.pl for this feature.

$popup = PopUp([ "?", "one", "two", "three" ], "three");

$dropdown1 = DropDown([ 'one', 'two', 'three' ], 'two');
$dropdown2 = DropDown([ 'one', 'two', 'three' ],
    'one', placeholder => 'Select an option');
$dropdown3 =
    DropDown([ 'one', [ 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five' ], 'six' ], 'six');

$tf = DropDownTF('T');

Setup

This shows a number of ways to use either PopUp (the legacy version) or DropDown (a more flexible version). Both create an HTML select object. The PopUp takes a array reference of option and the correct answer and creates the options. Notice in Popup the first element is shown, but selectable, whereas in DropDown, the first either defaults to ? or whatever is in the placeholder option. In Dropdown, the first element is not selectable.

Similar to other parser objects, inserting another array reference, randomizes those options.

Lastly, the DropDownTF creates a true/false dropdown for simplicity.
