javascript_howto thread: Datasrc & DataFld

Message #1 by louis.lafruit@p... on Fri, 23 Nov 2001 09:48:37

The underlying script found in The book IE5 Dynamic HTML works perfectly.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Food List</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<DIV ALIGN=CENTER>
<TABLE ID=Data WIDTH=75% DATASRC=#food>
  <THEAD>
    <TH> Group </TH> <TH> Food </TH> <TH> Calories </TH>
  </THEAD>
  <TBODY>
    <TR>
      <TD ALIGN=CENTER> <SPAN DATAFLD="Group"> </SPAN> </TD>
      <TD ALIGN=CENTER> <SPAN DATAFLD="Food"> </SPAN> </TD>
      <TD ALIGN=CENTER> <SPAN DATAFLD="Calories"> </SPAN> </TD>
    </TR>
  </TBODY>
</TABLE>
</DIV>

<OBJECT ID="food" WIDTH=100 HEIGHT=51
  CLASSID="CLSID:333C7BC4-460F-11D0-BC04-0080C7055A83">
  <PARAM NAME="FieldDelim" VALUE=",">
  <PARAM NAME="DataURL" VALUE="food.txt">
  <PARAM NAME="UseHeader" VALUE=True>
  <PARAM NAME="FilterColumn" VALUE="Group">
  <PARAM NAME="FilterCriterion" VALUE="=">
  <PARAM NAME="FilterValue" VALUE="Dairy">
  <PARAM NAME="SortColumn" VALUE="Food">
</OBJECT>

</BODY>
</HTML>
I tried to use it for a SELECT tag and never obtained the expected result!

<select id=Data  DATASRC="#food"  DATAFLD="Food" style="WIDTH: 247px"  >
<option></select>

Can somebody tell me why above code doesn't work?
