Kevin -

Document.write can be a bit troublesome, due to differing DOM models and
different browser implementations.  Have you done this sort of thing
before?  Cross-browser DOM management is a pain - if you can possibly
avoid it, do so.

Subject: [Mapserver-users] some javascript help

I am looking for some direction on how I should accomplish something...
What I am trying to do is to create a pull-down menu to allow the user
to choose the storm that they would like to work with.  When a storm is
chosen, then the different variables for the storm are dispayed in a
checkbox format (i.e. storm surge, storm center, track).  I am trying to
get the document.write to write the checkboxes to the same page,
underneath the pull-down menu, but I am guessing it is not working.
    Am I going to have to, with each storm selected, recreate the entire
page using document.write()?  It is tough to explain, sorry... I have
looked at several pages with pull down menus changing certain
parameters, but to no avail.  Any ideas?

Thanks!!
