webforms

I would like to have input field that users can enter custom text value or choose from drop down, normal select only offers drop down options.

How can it accept custom value for instance ford?

<select>
  <option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
  <option value="saab">Saab</option>
  <option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
  <option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select>

Edit: I used this http://bit.wisestamp.com/uncategorized/htmljquery-editable-combo-2/ solution. Also I tried jquery ui combobox and it is not working properly
