SelectFilter should use click events instead of href javascript functions

[Rolf Jagerman]

SelectFilter uses javascript in an href to handle button behavior:

<a href="javascript:function(){...}">

This is problematic if one wishes to customize the widget, since the href javascript is executed after events are handled. It would be better to use a click event to handle this type of behavior:

someElement.addEventListener("click", function() { ... } );

I have proposed a patch on github:
