</select>

Whenever I put this list inside the <select> tags, it is totally not displaying… When I take it outside the <select> tags I get…

    <option value="Central Asia">Central Asia</option>
    <option value="Central Europe">Central Europe</option>
    <option value="East Africa">East Africa</option>
    <option value="East Asia">East Asia</option>

Anybody have this problem? I can’t find a solution to it anywhere.

This function works fine with this XMLHttpRequest function I made, but I found out today when some lady at work was trying to register with Internet Explorer, that it doesn’t work with it. Blegh. So, I am making the switch to jQuery, and it burns.

    You can’t have a <div> inside a <select>. Just put the class on the <select>.

    <select class="region"></select>
