Scripting Dropdown innerHTML

[NevG]

Hi gang

can someone please tell me why I am not able to set the innerHTML of my dropdown select control using javascript

Im trying to change the contents of my second slect control from the choice in the first one using an XML string that has come back from end. When I format the xml into

<option></option> etc.... and set it to the innerhtml 2 things happen

1) the innerhtml of the control doesnt get set
2) the string Im trying to set the innerhtml from loses the opening <option> tag

choice1</option><option>choice2</option>

is what I end up with ...

help !!

Thanks

As far as I know, you cannot populate a select control using innerHTML. You will have to use Javascript to add new Options to the control.

Hope this helps,
