Array of Strings and outputting it into a drop-down list
Hi,
I have a javascript function that returns an array of information. From this Array, I want to plug the information into a drop-down list inside a table. How can I do this.
function myfunction(){
Array a = new Array();
//more codes...
return a;
}
<HTML>
<BODY>
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>
Please select:
</TD>
<TD>
// I want to create a drop-down list here with the information from the array returned from the function above.
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Unfortunately, it is a javascript function.
And yes, instead of "Array a = new Array()", it is:
var a = new Array()
thanks!

var valarray=getVal.split(",");
for (var i=0; i < valarray.length;++i){
addOption(document.getElementById("<second combo box name here>"), valarray[i], valarray[i]);
}
function trim(stringToTrim) {
return stringToTrim.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,"");
}
function addOption(selectbox,text,value)
{
var optn = document.createElement("OPTION");
optn.text = trim(text);
optn.value = trim(value);
selectbox.options.add(optn);
}
function removeAllOptions(selectbox)
{
var i;
for(i=selectbox.options.length-1;i>=0;i--)
{
selectbox.remove(i);
}
}
