What can I use instead of a drop-down menu?
What to Use Instead: Text Fields and Radio Button Interfaces. If, for a particular input, there are many more than 10 options, but the input doesn't have to be validated, an open text form field will often be simpler than a drop-down, as users don't have to read and understand all options before making a choice.
When would you use a drop-down field?
The use case for drop-down menus
Offering drop-down menus can help users avoid scrolling and can quickly get them access to your site's content. For large websites, drop-down menus can save users time by allowing them to jump down a level or two to get to the content they seek.
