I’m a student in JavaScript and we have an assignment due tonight. I’ve been working, and re-working, the code for bit.

Essentially, I’m struggling with populating a List Box (combo box) from a Multi-Dimensional Array.

I have a multi-dimensional array created and it works (I sent my results to an alert box). 

var concertArray = [
        ["Billy Joel", "99", "equal.png"],
        ["Bryan Adams", "89", "higher.png"],
        ["Brian Adams", "25", "lower.png"]

        ];

But, I have no idea how to populate this array to a select list box (combo box).

Any help, much appreciated.

    Use this Code.

    <html>

    <head>
     <script type="text/javascript">
        var concertArray = [
            ["Billy Joel", "99", "equal.png"],
            ["Bryan Adams", "89", "higher.png"],
            ["Brian Adams", "25", "lower.png"]
            ];

            function populate(){

                for(i=0;i<concertArray.length;i++){
                    var select = document.getElementById("test");
                    select.options[select.options.length] = new Option(concertArray[i][0], concertArray[i][1]);
                }

            }
        </script>
        </head>

    <body onload="populate();">
        <select id="test">
        </select>
    </body>     
</html>

    this will help you…..
