Hi,I have a linked dynamic dropdown menu which I did following the dreamweaver tutorial on macromedia's
site www.macromedia.com/support/ultradev/ts/documents/client_dynamic_listbox.htm
but I want to change one tiny thing.
I want an option on the <b>child drop down menu </b>which says "select all" and has a value of %, I've tried creating a static option but it gets overwritten as soon as the function is executed, any suggestions?

Ok I think I got it to work although I'm not sure what consequences it might have in the near future. What I did was add a static option on the child menu, but it wouldn't work so I took out this function
clearDynaList(oList2);
that seemed to the trick, but like I said who knows what other problems I might encounter after doing this.

Ok not a good idea to take that out, apparently if that function isn't called the dropdown menu is never cleared so all the info from the databes keeps piling on, I'll keep on trying

Just a thought, but after the clear function, cant you create the select all option there, so when the dropdown is cleared the first thing it does it create your select all option...

That would probably be the best solution if I wasn't such a moron when it comes to javascript. What I did as a temp solution is to create a "Select All" field in my database, it works for now but its not quite what I intended to do, wou can check it out at: hhtp://www.marmenor.com/search.asp
I will solve this eventually, I'll keep you guys posted in case someone in this forum ever needs to do something like this.
