James, do you have the code the article is using to create their 'bug?'
--That dern msnbc article don't (that I could find in scan-reading the
article)
cause depending on the method(s) used to retreive the value, there's a part
of me that thinks the above makes perfect sense (there's the array of
values, and then then there's the selectedIndex value) and it may not be a
bug after all. Or am I whacked and/or offbase?
The JS engine is supposed to be ECMA compliant, do ya know if this behavior
is against it?
(gonna take a small look-see, but I admit I'm asking you to do my homework)
