[Javascript] accessing javascript array value inside the select tag

[Andrew Gibson]

I think probably you'd put those arrays in with a server side script

Something like:

<option value="<%=collegeId(i)%>">"<%=collegeName(i)%>"</option>

If you needed to access the collegeName(i) you could always go


<option value="<%=collegeId(i)&"|"&collegeName(i)%>">

Then the value is, say,   1|My college

and you can parse out the id etc with Javascript.
