failing form elements

This always fails on IE (and opera)... any ideas?
However, it works on Mozilla and NS.


i=0;
document.forms["userdefform"].elements["currency"].options[i] =
new Option("United States Dollars", "usa");
++i;
document.forms["userdefform"].elements["currency"].options[i] =
new Option("Euro", "euro");
++i;
document.forms["userdefform"].elements["currency"].options[i] =
new Option("Canadan Dollars", "canada");
++i;
document.forms["userdefform"].elements["currency"].options[i] =
new Option("United Kingdom Pounds", "uk");


my form says (something similar to):


<form name="userdefform">
<select name="currency">
</select>
</form>


... Keep in mind i am using Mandrake.

then i guess it is the combination of mandrake/ie, because your code works great in winxp/ie

and why a new thread and not continue the other one about this same subject?

Yes, you should have continued this thread (http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=27879).

I'm testing IE on windows. As if WINE could run IE on mandrake!

is there any error message thrown?

none.


if you wanna preview what im doing:

Could be a MIME-type problem. Try setting the ContentType to "text/javascript" in the currency.php. Put also an alert inside the init_currency() function to verify that it is being called.

I find the Option constructor to be buggy -- try document.createElement instead.

After finding the cause of 3 days of worry, I would like to emphasise the use of the </script> tag in all your javascript code...


GOD IM AN IDIOT!


Mozilla and NS dont care.
However IE, Konqueror and Opera chuck the sh**s!
