Contact Form 7 “non-selectable” options in a drop down [closed]

I can see how your solution works, but there is a semantic element created for exactly what you want: <optgroup>. Whatever your solution, I’d encourage you to use that instead.

Searching for “contact form 7 optgroup” you’ll discover that other people are looking for the same thing you are and trying to implement <optgroup> to do it. Here’s one answer that includes both a javascript solution and a plugin hack (probably not a good idea). Probably the better solution I’ve found is this one. It’s a javascript to replace Contact Form 7 select options with the optgroup element using a specified syntax.

That final solution should probably remain stable even if CF7 adds optgroup support down the road.
