I have javascript code which passes select input form field values in Firefox and Opera but it does not seem to work in IE7.
This form runs a search, and the search results page has the same form at the top of the page with values filled in.
In Firefox the fields are passed correctly. In IE7 the select field "selected" option is not passed correctly, rather the drop-down select field reverts to the default/top field.
Here is the code: - <script language="javascript">
-
var arrQs = location.search.substring(1).split("&");
-
for (x = 0; x < arrQs.length; x++) {
-
if (arrQs[x].split("=")[0] == 'in_state') {
-
var val = arrQs[x].split("=")[1];
-
}
-
}
-
if (val != null) {
-
var e = document.forms[0].elements;
-
for (x = 0; x < e.length; x++) {
-
if (e[x].name && e[x].name == 'in_state') {
-
for (o = 0; o < e[x].options.length; o++)
-
if (e[x][o].value == val)
-
e[x][o].selected = true;
-
}
-
}
-
}
-
</script>

Thanks, Mike.

Welcome to the site!
Do you get any errors? Can you show the HTML for the select element?
Thanks acoder!
The html code is actually formed by some perl scripts. Here is the way it appears on the page, sorry this may be a bit long. The screenshots show that Firefox displays the state abbreviation, while IE7 does not.

Not tested, but adding values to the options should solve the problem:
[html]<option value="AK">AK[/html]
Seems to work, thank you very much!!!

I have a select named "s" in a form named "f":
By default only one of the options in the select appears on the page --
that is how I want it.
What I'd like to do is simulate a click on the select so that all of
its options become visible -- i.e., its option box opens to reveal all
document.f.s.options.length options.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
