For the first time I heard a textfield option is better than drop down in registration form. 😐The_Big_KWe had a drop down long time ago. But it was then removed as a text field was a better option.

Shalini, the field that you see is the modified version. Earlier, we were accepting the engineering field information in different format for which the text field.shalini_goel14For the first time I heard a textfield option is better than drop down in registration form. 😐

I don't think so it matters much if a Communication engineer writes "Electronics and Communications" engineer in his/her profile atleast we people get an idea that what kind of engineer he/she is rather than having rubbish trades mentioned in their profile.Right?raj87verma88In a drop down you are restricted to the limited choices available. Eg You won't have option for communication engineer, instead you will find electronics and communication. So you will have to chose something most related to your field.
If you put all fields and specializations, it would make quite a long list.
I guess your this sentence is missing some words. Looks like an incomplete sentence.The_Big_KEarlier, we were accepting the engineering field information in different format for which the text field.

Perfect Scorpion. 😀silverscorpionMay be we could combine drop down and text box. List all the common engineering disciplines in a drop down, and provide a radio button saying 'others'. If any specialization is not in the drop down, let the user select other and fill in his discipline using a text box. How's that?

We can have the drop downs with one of the options as 'others'. If some one doesn't find his/her engineering branch in the list, he/she can select others. On selection, a text box should open where he can enter his engineering branch.The_Big_KSomeone just entered 'CAD Design' in the text field. Now tell me how do we take care of this?
I guess we'll keep the text field, but put a limit to characters in it.

Don't forget to add my field. It is Mechanical and AutomationThe_Big_KI guess I'll work on implementing the engineering disciplines drop down list.
