Customize Search option for a Feature Layer

[SarojThapa1]

My Search option is pointing to a feature layer that has a few features. Each feature of this feature layer refers to  a particular region in the map. I was thinking about creating a drop down list inside the search option. As a result, a user can  choose from the drop downs and ENTER. After that, the map should zoom into the region the feature points to.

Is that possible or should I use QueryTask to achieve this?

Saroj,

   I believe that you would be much better off using a QueryTask for this then trying to customize the Search Dijit.
