Re: AJAX issue in IE

["Walden H. Leverich" <WaldenL@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can't get there from here. It's a known issue that you cannot set
the innerHtml on a select in IE and have it do what you want. Like it?
Nope. But there it is, deal with it. :-)

Options:

1 (Recommended): Return the <select> part too from the Ajax call and
wrap the select in a span and set the span's innerHtml, works fine.

2: Return just the <option> part, and wrap it up in a select in JS and
then see option #1.

3: Return the items you want in JSON, or other non-html format, and use
the .Add method to add the options to the select tag

Also... Why on earth are you not using a toolkit? If you take option 1
(my recommendation) and had prototype.js as your toolkit your entire
code could (from the <script> to the </script>) be replaced with:

function updDropDown(fldName) {
 Ajax.Updater('shiptospan', 
  '/cgi-bro/SYG930?DDMODE=S&DDVIEWNAME=CB01HP&DDFLDNAME=BTCD&DDDEFAULT='
  + $F('fldName'));
}
 
where 'shiptpspan' is the id of the span you wrap the shipto select in,
and it would be x-browser to boot.
