I am confused. I have a list of <OPTIONS>'s and each item in the list has
a comma. (It is a list on names: "lastn, firstn"). This is a list of
OPTION's that is in a SELECT MULTIPLE select box.
However, the second part of each item does not appear in the list -- it is
blank!
Example:
HTML code:
<select multiple size="15" name="user_pool[]" id="user_pool" class="select_pool">
<option value='160'>Tester,Tester Q.</option>
<option value='183'>Tester 1 Lastn,Tester 1 Firstn</option>
<option value='184'>Tester 2 Lastn,Tester 2 Firstn</option>
</select>
Browser Output (ASCII drawing):
-------------------
| Tester |
| Tester 1 Lastn |
| Tester 2 Lastn |
| |
| |
-------------------
The stuff after the comma does NOT SHOW UP!! This occurs for me in
Firefox 1.5, MSIE 6, Opera 8.51, and Konqueror 3.4. (It should be noted
that this problem did not occur in two text-mode browsers, elinks and
lynx. Also, I use Linux as my test platform -- don't know if that matters.)
I don't know what is going on! When I change the commas to anything else,
slash (/), hyphen (-), or whatever, the second half of the text items
shows up.
Any insight into this issue would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks! Lotsa exclamation points!!!
