below is a simple dynamic option list. it doesn't seem to work on the

insights into what i'm doing wrong? very much appreciated.

Nothing *terribly* wrong in your code. My best guess would be about
this line:

box1.options[0] = new Option("<-- Select option", "0");

Usually "full support for all standards" is an ad crap and the real
mobil device abilities are much more humble.

Try the old way instead just to see if any reaction:

box1.options[0].text = 'New text';
box1.options[0].value = 'New value';

If it works by any chance than you stoke in a fancy mix of Netscape
JavaScript 1.3 and partly-curly implemented 2005 technologies (the
regular story). But maybe I'm just thinking too bad on Blazer. Check it
anyway.

hey, thanks alot for the response. i tried it in both places in the
script with no change. what a scam; palm says blazer 4.0 is 1.5
compliant. frustrating.
