		+	The General Chooser is a custom field type that allows the user to select multiple records from a defined data set. The data set is built through a component that is defined specifically for each chooser.
		+
		+	The base data set is designed for selection custom element records. Although, the component will allow a developer to build any custom data set, from CommonSpot groups to data from a non-CommonSpot database.
		+
		+	The built in styles allow the General Chooser custom field type to be easier designed. The field is based around the JQuery UI themes and a specific theme can be defined per data set. Also, the height and width for the selection boxes and items can be styled differently per data set.
		+
		+	== Implementation ==
		+	Import the General Chooser custom field type into your site from this ADF location:
		+	* /ADF/extensions/customfields/general_chooser/
		+
		+	Follow these instructions to create a component for your General Chooser.
		+
		+	Once the component is created and the ADF is reset, add the General Chooser field to your custom element. In the properties field, enter the name for the component that was created (do not include the '.cfc').
