had a read of this....can you explain why new Option() is bad if it is still
supported?
 
With all the other option you has to mess around with it to get it to work.
new Option() just works and always has so i dont see it being bad especially
when you are dealing with older browsers

I wrote a post a while ago about the bugs/features surrounding dynamic
population of a select form.

I would be using the JS to use new Option() to insert the options, not HTML
like that.

Hi guys,

I'm using mootools to create some dynamic dropdownlists.
Basically the user selects from a list, and the second list is dynamically
populated.

The way I have been trying to do it is as follows:

1. Onchange on list one I did a Request.HTML to a script that game me back
the option values for list 2. I then injected the options into the id of my
second list.

It kind of works, but for some reason the list ony seems to have 1 item in
it, despite there being 4-5 properly formed <option value="">blah</option>
tags?

Any ideas why it lists them all as just one option?

Thanx

Justin
