    IE Mac

    You know, just a couple of minutes ago, we decided not to support that browser. That was just one of the quirks of the browser. There's many more (regular expressions for instance). I want to thank you for following up on this. It's REALLY very nice of you.

    Yep, assigning the element an id and using it to refer to the element works fine.

    Ok, after I add the row to the table, I do: alert(document.forms[0].my_name); which generates precisely this: "undefined". FF and everything else work fine. No errors.

    IE Mac

    What I do in the code is create a select element and then populate it from an array. It's the populate stage where I get the error -- I get something like "undefined" whenever I try to access it.

    Yes, the table is inside a form. It works in all browsers but the Mac IE. elem.name doesn't do it. What's interesting is that when I do alert(myRow.innerHTML), everything looks fine. The element has the right name attribute. Here's the output of the alert: <TD><SELECT name=my_name...

    So it seems that the forms collection is not updated after a new element is added dynamically?

    IE Mac

    Hello, I've got this pesky problem with the IE under Mac (5.1). Here's the code. var myTable = document.getElementById("tableID").getElementsByTagName("tbody")[0]; var myRow = document.createElement('TR'); var myTD = document.createElement('TD'); var elem = document.createElement('select')...

    createelement / name

    Hmm, take a look at the article below. Would be curious about your thoughts. http://www.easy-reader.net/archives/2005/09/02/death-to-bad-dom-implementations/

    createelement / name

    So how do I do it across browsers without sniffing? In IE it's: elem = createElement("<select name='my_name'>") In FF: elem = createElement('select'); elem.name = 'my_name' In Safari: elem = createElement('select'); elem.setAttribute('name', 'my_name'); Safari doesn't error back on elem.name =...

    createelement / name

    Sorry, it did work when I created a simple case. Something within my more complicated case is messing it up, but I'll figure it out. Thanks A LOT for the tip!!!

    createelement / name

    Nope, I actually tried that before I posted. The name is still missing... Did you try it in your Safari?

    createelement / name

    Weird behavior in Safari: myRow = createElement('tr'); myTD = createElement('td'); elem = createElement('select'); elem.name = 'my_name'; myTD.appendChild(elem); myRow.appendChild(myTD); alert(myRow.innerHTML) gives: <TR> <TD> <SELECT></SELECT> </TD> </TR> Bottom line, the name...

    Events

    Here's a thread I found that sort of discusses what I'm talking about: http://www.codingforums.com/archive/index.php?t-10479.html A related question to my previous posts is: if "if (event)" in a function that doesn't have "event" defined produces "event undefined", then how come checking for...

    You're right, I should have made my question more clear.
