Hi all, Thanks to IE's inability to dynamically hide/show options within a select list, I need to do it differenly, but I can't get it to work =/. This is what works as I'd expect in FF; //this is only for agency jobs - show titles dependent on discipline selected discipline = $("#admin-jobs .discipline_agency_row select [EMAIL PROTECTED]").val(); $("#admin-jobs .jobtitle").hide(); titles_needed = "#admin-jobs .discipline" + discipline; $(titles_needed).show(); $("#admin-jobs .discipline_agency_row select").change(function(){ $("#admin-jobs .jobtitle").hide(); titles_needed = "#admin-jobs .discipline" + $(this).val(); $(titles_needed).show(); });
This is what I've come up with, and logically I think it should work, but it doesn't. IE strips all the options out (but shows the empty dropdown) and won't add any back in, and FF doesn't strip any out at all. //show titles dependent on discipline selected $discipline = $("#admin-jobs .discipline_agency_row select [EMAIL PROTECTED]").val(); $titles_needed = "#admin-jobs .discipline" + $discipline; alloptions = $("#admin-jobs .jobtitle").clone(); if ($discipline){ reqoptions = alloptions.find( "option:not('"+$titles_needed+"')" ).remove(); $("#admin-jobs .title_row select").empty(); $("#admin-jobs .title_row select").append(reqoptions); } $("#admin-jobs .discipline_agency_row select").change(function(){ $titles_needed = "#admin-jobs .discipline" + $(this).val(); alloptions = $("#admin-jobs .jobtitle").clone(); if ( $(this).val() ){ reqoptions = alloptions.find( "option:not('"+$titles_needed+"')" ).remove(); $("#admin-jobs .title_row select").empty(); $("#admin-jobs .title_row select").append(reqoptions); } }); Anyone got a method that does work, or does a plugin exist to counter IE's bug?
