Whilst I have no immediate need for it, I've noticed that if a select
element is changed via setting the selectedIndex value, it does not
fire an onchange event. Is there any reason for this? Both IE 6 and FF
2 behave the same in regards to this.
Is it the developers responsibility to fire this event in such a
situation?

At least for IE there is: http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/a...s/onchange.asp
"The onchange event does not fire when the selected option of the
select object is changed programatically ."
I don't remember if it is some standard DOM interface feature or a
"default common behavior" of all browsers. From the practical point of
view it is not so relevant though.
Both IE 6 and FF 2 behave the same in regards to this.
Yes, see above.
Is it the developers responsibility to fire this event in such a
situation?
I'm afraid so. And remember that custom events do not propagate
(bubble) so you have to fire them for each event consumer separately.

The W3C event model provides dispatchEvent, IE provides fireEvent.

Hi All...
For my purpose, I need to handle listbox selection changed event.I must
be notified before changing occurs and after.After I can handle using
SelectedIndexChanged event.Is there anyway to know which one is selected
item before this event.?One thing is I can have a variable to hold the index
in my application.
I'm looking exactly like TreeView events(which fires events before
expanding and after expanding the nodes).

I use a SELECT dropdown as the nav interface for jumping to a chosen
page number. When I setup up the SELECT element on the page, I want to
show the user the current page number they are on, so, I put "selected"
next to the page number, as shown below:
-------------------------------
<form name="pick" method="post" action="showit.php">
<select name="pggo"
onChange="this.options.selected;document.pick.submit();">

Problem: In Firefox, the changes work fine. In IE, the images just
disappear, and there is a broken image. The images are THERE. Some are
blank images (like placeholders, since the male character is shirtless,
his shirt is blank). But they do exist.
Here is a sample of the code, there are several of these functions but
they're all the same just different parts.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
