function changeSelect(optiontext, optionvalue)
{
     // find out how many items are already in the select box
     var selectLength = document.formname.selectname.options.length;

     // add new item
     document.formname.selectname.options[selectLength] = new
Option(optiontext, optionvalue);
}

<a href="" onClick="changeSelect('text 1', 1); return true">add option
1</a>
<a href="" onClick="changeSelect('text 2', 2); return true">add option
2</a>
<a href="" onClick="changeSelect('text 3', 3); return true">add option
3</a>

should do it.

Can anyone tell a javascript moron how to do this:

I have a multiple select box that starts empty. I need an onClick event
that
adds an option to the select box (the user will be clicking on a text link)
up to a maximum of three options.

All help much needed and gratefully accepted.

Pete
