Hi,
For those of you who have seen my previous posts, you'll know I'm a Javascript novice <G> Due to my job at the moment, I'm taking the plunge to learn at least the basics, so I can do the simpler stuff, rather than having to outsource it to programmers
I have a Perl/PHP/MySQL programming background, so appologies if my mistake it a silly one =)
Ok, now to the nitty-gritty.
I have this code;
This works fine in IE (although a little weird results - i.e I would have expected the existing HTML etc to remain, using the document.write method?)
But anyway, the major problem is this: In Firefox (latest version), it shows the select box fine - you click a number, and it shows the right value, but then it prints out the first line (foo, in thi case), and then just hangs, and hangs, and hangs :/)
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
TIA!
Andy
