Yep, that makes sense — since the index is zero-based, a list with 1 item will have item [0] only, 2 will have [0, 1], 3 will have [0, 1, 2], etc. So it’s length-1.

ok. if I set selectedindex = length-1, it works.

i’m having the same problem, but unable to fix it. I tried to set the selected index to the length of the select element, like this: document.formname.business.selectedIndex=document.formname.business.length;
