Does anybody know of a jQuery plugin that will allow for what I'm calling "tiered options" within an HTML select element? By this I mean something similar to the folder/file structure system that you find on most Operating Systems. Here's a screen shot of what I'm talking about from Windows:

I'm not as much concerned with having the images. Just being able to have a Category and SubCategories within that category are what's important to me.

jQuery is preferred, but if there are any plain javascript options for this, that's cool too.

Thanks for any and all help.

Try one of these on for size.

This looks nice with support for Option groups

jQuery UI Selectmenu

If you do not mind using <ul> <li> You may want to try these flyout menus

There is a nice tree-view plugin: http://jquery.bassistance.de/treeview/demo/
