Question

Using Javascript how would I append an option to a HTML select menu?

e.g to this:

<select>
    <option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
    <option value="saab">Saab</option>
    <option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
    <option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select>

Something like this:

var option = document.createElement("option");
option.text = "Text";
option.value = "myvalue";
var select = document.getElementById("id-to-my-select-box");
select.appendChild(option);
