choosing drop down box

[chrismiceli]

hey, i need to be able to select the item in a drop down box from a function. here is a snipet of code which doesn't work but will give you an idea of what i am trying to do

document.form1.box.options[1].focus();

document.form1.box.selectedIndex = SOMENUMBER

The selectedIndex starts with 0; 0 would be the first thing in your dropdown box - and focus won't work with a select :)
