[Twisted-web] Re: LivePage client.set()

      Here's a simple example (attached).

This doesn't work at all in IE 6.  I think the issue is that
document.innerHTML is not standard.

I ended up writing a Javascript function that accepts the option text as lines:

    myfuncs = T.script(language="javascript")[
        T.xml("""

        function setOptions(selectID, optionsString) {
            select = document.getElementById(selectID)
            select.options.length = 0
            optionList = optionsString.split(/\\n/)
            for (i=0; i < optionList.length; i++) {
                option = document.createElement("option")
                option.text = option.value = optionList[i]
                select.appendChild(option)
            }
        }
        """)]
