This is prohibited by either SGML DTDs if HTML
4.01(http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.3):
<!ELEMENT FORM - - (%block;|SCRIPT)+ -(FORM) -- interactive form -->
and XML DTDs of XHTML 1.0 (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#prohibitions)
"form
cannot contain other form elements."
So, it is a good reason why browsers don't like it.
Respect to your original problem, value of element <select> can be changed by
JavaScript
without submitting the whole form.
Here is a little example (this behaves like a combobox ,common input + select with
history list):
<input type="text" name="combo_input" style="width:5em"
onKeypress="combo_select.value=''; return true;"><br>
<select name="combo_select" style="width:5em" tabindex=-1
onChange="combo_input.value=combo_select.value; return true;"
onFocus="this.blur; return true;">
<option value="one">one</option>
<option value="two">two</option>
<option value="three">three</option>
</select>
