Hi,

I am trying to get a select box to reset all its options to null. This is my code:

var theoptions = document.form2.dateselect.options

for (i = theoptions.length; i < 5; i++){

theoptions[i]= null;
}

I notice that the length of a select box will return 0, so I might be wasting my time calling it, but since it returns 0 every time I figure thats a solid starting point for the for loop. This method of setting each option to null by putting [i] in there doesn't seem to do anything. Any ideas?

cheers

Doh! It was really simple!

var theoptions = document.form2.dateselect.options
for (i = 0; i < 5; i++){
theoptions[0]= null;
}

Of course! The index shifts, so its always 0!

Thanks
