Change selected option

Hi!

I have six dropdown-lists (<select>) where the user can select a country related to a specific image – one dropdown per image. To make it easier for the user I also want to have a dropdown-list that changes the selected option in all the other dropdown-lists to the same value. How would I write this? I’m quite a rookie at JavaScript.

Thanks in advance.

@JMRKERJun 11.2008 — Do you have some example code to look at and/or modify?

If you have the select boxes identified as SB0..SB5, and assuming SB0 is the control box, you could try ...
[code=php]
// in <HEAD>
function SetSB() {
var SBselect = document.getElementById('SB0').selectedIndex;
document.getElementById('SB1').selectedIndex = SBselect;
...
document.getElementById('SB5').selectedIndex = SBselect;
}

// in <BODY>
<input id="SB0" type="selectbox" onclick="SetSB()">
[/code]
Obviously untested.
