Convert XML nodes to raw text

[ruskalym]

Hello,

I am trying to make a dynamic AJAX form in a webpage and I want to dynamically change a <select> box's options.

So I have a server-side PHP script which generates following response :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<WebResponse>
<WebResponseInd id="0">
<Response>
<Result>
  <option value="1">First option</option>
  <option value="2">Second option</option>
</Result>
</Response>
</WebResponseInd>
</WebResponse>
 

I want to insert options that lay within the <Result> tag directly into the webpage using document.getElementById("mySelect").innerHTML.

The problem is that getElementsByTagName('Result').item(0).nodeValue returns an empty string.

Is there any way to convert the node to text or string ?

what about:

getElementsByTagName('Result').innerHTML
 

?? :)

kind regards

you generally can/should not use .innerHTML to build options.

build them manually, in a loop, and add each one separately.
