Help with function to determine listbox contents

[tks423]

Hi,

I was wondering if this is correct code for determine the contents of
a listbox. I'm particularly interested to know if the
sel1.options[i].valueOf() call will tell me the value of the item as
it loops through the for statement:

function listBoxContents (sel1)
{
var selLength1 = sel1.length;
var i;
var values;

for(i=0; i<=selLength1-1; i++)
{
values=sel1.opt ions[i].valueOf() + ",";
}
var lastComma = values.lastInde xOf(',');
values = values.substrin g(0,lastComma);

return values;
}

for(i=0; i<selLength1; i++)
values+=sel1.op tions[i].value+ ",";
return values.slice(0,-1)
}

values+=sel1.op tions[i].value+ ",";
return values.slice(0,-1)

}

Thanks! Now say I want to hide this return value in hidden input, can
I say something like below:

function listBoxContents (sel1)
{
var selLength1 = sel1.options.le ngth,i,values=' ';

for(i=0; i<selLength1; i++)
values+=sel1.op tions[i].value+ ",";
document.writel n("<input type='hidden' name='hiddenVal ues' value='"
+ values.slice(0,-1) + "'>");
}

var input=document. createElement(" input");
input.name="hid denValues";inpu t.type="hidden" ;
input.value=val ues.slice(0,-1);
document.body.a ppendChild(inpu t);
}
