/**
* Adds an element to the collection of option elements for this select element.
Parameters
element- An item to add to the collection of options.
before
Optional from Gecko 7.0
- An item (or
HTML5 index of an item) that the new item should be inserted before. If this parameter is
null (or the index does not exist), the new element is appended to the end of the collection.
Examples
Creating Elements from Scratch
var sel = document.createElement("select");
var opt1 = document.createElement("option");
var opt2 = document.createElement("option");
opt1.value = "1";
opt1.text = "Option: Value 1";
opt2.value = "2";
opt2.text = "Option: Value 2";
sel.add(opt1, null);
sel.add(opt2, null);
/*
Produces the following, conceptually:
<select>
<option value="1">Option: Value 1</option>
<option value="2">Option: Value 2</option>
</select>
*/
From
HTML5 and Gecko 7.0 the before parameter is optional. So the following is accepted.
...
sel.add(opt1);
sel.add(opt2);
...
Append to an Existing Collection
var sel = document.getElementById("existingList");
var opt = document.createElement("option");
opt.value = "3";
opt.text = "Option: Value 3";
sel.add(opt, null);
/*
Takes the existing following select object:
<select id="existingList" name="existingList">
<option value="1">Option: Value 1</option>
<option value="2">Option: Value 2</option>
</select>
And changes it to:
<select id="existingList" name="existingList">
<option value="1">Option: Value 1</option>
<option value="2">Option: Value 2</option>
<option value="3">Option: Value 3</option>
</select>
*/
From
HTML5 and Gecko 7.0 the before parameter is optional. So the following is accepted.
...
sel.add(opt);
...
Inserting to an Existing Collection
var sel = document.getElementById("existingList");
var opt = document.createElement("option");
opt.value = "3";
opt.text = "Option: Value 3";
sel.add(opt, sel.options[1]);
/*

<select id="existingList" name="existingList">
<option value="1">Option: Value 1</option>
