[fixthebug2003]

Hi,
How can we dynamically add/delete the OPTGROUP to a SELECT Form element (list-box) using javascript?

check out the faqs - always the best place to start.

function create(){

optGroup = document.createElement('optgroup')

var objSelect=document.forms(0).elements(0);
var objOption=document.createElement("option")

objOption.innerHTML = "tset"
objOption.value = "simon"

optGroup.label = "simple"

objSelect.appendChild(optGroup)
optGroup.appendChild(objOption)
}

A quick check on MSDn reveals that it isn't:

This element is available in HTML as of Internet Explorer 6.
