HTML 5 <optgroup> Tag

<select>
<optgroup label="Swedish Cars">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
</optgroup>
<optgroup label="German Cars">
<option value="vw">VW</option>
<option value="audi">Audi</option>
</optgroup>
</select>

Definition and Usage

The <optgroup> is used to group related options in a drop-down list.
