onclick in the option tag 1

[iminore]

The html 'option' tag has no onclick event in IE. Does anyone know how to handle this.

 

[geeteshk]

you can use scripts such as javascript or vbscript instead

The 'select' tag has an onClick event though. There you can perform the routine you wrote. In this routine you can test which option is checked.

i'd do what Stoempt said. It's the only way to go about it. Gary

using onclick in <select> doesn't help - the user hasn't selected an option at this point, he's just clicked to display the list.

try the onChange event

this should work too

 

[Stoemp]

and when the onChange event does not work (I doubt it) you can try some other ones you find on this page:

onChange in the <select> tag does work - I could have sworn
I'd tried that.
Many thanks
