option & textnode

[Andrew Koptyaev]

I have next piece of code.
I have a question - why text "Months" not in there option line of form.
Just after form. I is not right for me. I want in there option line.

var oOptionIntervalInputM = cElement('option');
cAttribute(oOptionIntervalInputM,'value','m');
var oOptionIntervalInputTextM = document.createTextNode('Months');
oOptionIntervalInputM.appendChild(oOptionIntervalInputTextM);

function cElement(el) {
this.obj = document.createElement(el);
return this.obj;
}

function cAttribute(obj,att,val) {
obj.setAttribute(att,val);
return this.obj;
}

Why your code didn't work as intended is not obvious from what you

posted. As roundabout as it is, it would probably "work" (in an unsafe
way). The error you describe might be caused when you try to add the new
option to a select element.

Try the "new Option" suggestion (first code snippet), and be careful
about how you use "this".

Thank you. I just was wrong in add new option to select. I should use
appendChild.
