Hi
Write out the data as client side arrays
The add option thing should go something like this:
function addOption( theForm, theName, theID ){
var myOption = new Option();
myOption.text = theName;
myOption.value = theID;
theForm.theSelect.options[ theForm.theSelect.options.length ] = myOption;
Quote:
}
Reset / Clear the select
theForm.theSelect.options.length = 0;
