# Select

[component-header:sl-select]

Selects allow you to choose one or more items from a dropdown menu.

```html preview
<sl-select placeholder="Select one">
  <sl-menu-item value="option-1">Option 1</sl-menu-item>
  <sl-menu-item value="option-2">Option 2</sl-menu-item>
  <sl-menu-item value="option-3">Option 3</sl-menu-item>
  <sl-menu-divider></sl-menu-divider>
  <sl-menu-item value="option-4">Option 4</sl-menu-item>
  <sl-menu-item value="option-5">Option 5</sl-menu-item>
  <sl-menu-item value="option-6">Option 6</sl-menu-item>
</sl-select>
```

?> This component doesn't work with standard forms. Use [`<sl-form>`](/components/form.md) instead.

## Examples

  <sl-menu-item value="option-1">Option 1</sl-menu-item>
  <sl-menu-item value="option-2">Option 2</sl-menu-item>
