Re: Witango-Talk: JS: stumped dynamic SELECT option selection

[Chuck Lockwood]

Hi Bill

I use basically the same line of code, works great.

Only thing I can see is drop the ".options" and drop the quotes around
"true".

In the code below, RT is the argument name the value in brackets equates to
an integer value.
document.hotel.RT[document.hotel.TixQuant.value].selected = true;

And do'nt forget the first item in the list is [0].

Hope it helps,

Chuck
