[TxMt] tm_dialog: Populating a dropdown.

[Andrew Henson]

Hi Ale,

The short answer is yes!  Have a look at a bundle I wrote for Snipplr.

http://www.elaptics.co.uk/fileadmin/repository/tmbundles/Snipplr2.zip

I populate the list of languages supported by Snipplr in the Post  
Snippet nib.  Give me a shout off list if any of it doesn't make  
sense.  I'll be interested to know if there is a better way of doing  
it as it seems a little bit more convoluted than it feels like it  
should be.
