pull-down list
<operating system> (Or "drop-down list") A {graphical user
interface} component that allows the user to choose one (or
sometimes more than one) item from a list. The current choice
is visible in a small rectangle and when the user clicks on
it, a list of items is revealed below it. The user can then
click on one of these to make it the current choice and the
list disappears. In some cases, by holding down a modifier
key such as Ctrl when clicking, the selection is added to (or
removed from) the set of current choices rather than replacing
it.

Drop-down list
A drop-down list (abbreviated drop-down, or DDL; also known as a drop-down menu, drop menu, pull-down list, picklist) is a graphical control element, similar to a list box, that allows the user to choose one value from a list. When a drop-down list is inactive, it displays a single value. When activated, it displays (drops down) a list of values, from which the user may select one. When the user selects a new value, the control reverts to its inactive state, displaying the selected value. It is often used in the design of graphical user interfaces, including web design.
