HELP HELP : Change Select Box to Input BOX

[ramesh_]

I am using joomla modules which shows dropdown linst/select box for weblinks. All Weblink's title are shown on select box/drop down option.

 

BUT

 

I would like to change select box/ drop down box to Input Box, Where i can enter title instead selecting option from drop down.
