Is it legal? Listbox question...

I have developed a DHTML-based data entry and reporting application. It makes use of multiple listboxes and comboboxes to display hierarchical information - Building/Tenant/Dept kind of stuff.

Anyway, if I allow a user to enter a non-unique item into a listbox for display to the user, subsequent clicks on that listbox will never allow the user to select the 2nd duplicate, only the first. The hidden key for each item is unique, but the data displayed to the user (could be Building name, Tenant name, etc.) is duplicated. But the 2nd one cannot be selected.

Are duplicate display items NOT allowed in Listboxes?

TIA,
