Brainstorm on 'clear form' user experience

    Can anyone give me suggestions on this issue:

    So I am trying to have users select membership level and have an optional conference fee via a shopping cart (PayPal). If I use a checkbox field, users can select more than one level or fee type, that's no good. If I use the multichoice field, users cannot deselect if they make a mistake on the optional fee. If I use the dropdown..., the first selection is automatically selected (thus making the optional field not really optional).

    The easiest work around that I can think of is to create an opt-out choice that defaults to $0. It would be nice if there was either a way to deselect or clear this particular field if a mistake is made.

    Thoughts?

    Then dropdown field shouldn't automatically select the first selection. Just make sure not to assign default value to your dropdown field.
