RE: IE7 SELECT Tag


Stupid question....

Is IE7 not more reliant on well formed HTML?
Maybe it expects the </option> tags.

Don't have IE7, so I can not check.

However it would still be a bug, either way.

Subject: IE7 SELECT Tag

I just installed IE7 this morning, then promptly found my first bug.

Now, imagine instead of fruit, you're picking which bank account to
transfer money to/from...


Sample Code:
<html>
<body>
<B>Please choose one:</B> &nbsp;
<SELECT onchange=alert('hi') size=1 name=favorite> <OPTION value="">
<OPTION value=1>Apple <OPTION value=2>Banana <OPTION value=3
selected>Cashew <OPTION value=4>Orange </SELECT> </body> </html>
