Large select/dropdown, but select list only shows first 100 entries

Question:
The select dropdown size is limited to 100. What if I have potentially thousands or millions of rows returned for the select data query?

Solution:
In that case, it's strongly recommended to use $dataUrl parameter that filters records in Ajax call via a remote URL.

See "HTML Edit Control" sample in Demo Explorer, please.

"Sample Select DataUrl" shows how one should format the JSON returned.
