I'm writing some fairly simple code using a Tkinter GUI, and found I wanted a Combo box. As Tkinter does not provide one, I turned to Tix, and struggled. Extensive googling failed to turn up any python specific documentation, and there was no obvious way to translate the Tcl documentation.
Nothing worked, and usually fell over with the error message _tkinter.TclError: unknown color name "{#c3c3c3}". Googling this error message seemed to suggest that this was a known bug, and that there was no readily available fix for those of us who like applications to work out of the box. Is this correct? If so is there any other Tkinter based solution, or do I need to learn a new GUI? I'm using Python 2.6.1 under WindowsXP Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
