Dan,
Still no luck with that code. The only way I can make it work is by putting
an alert('...') in the change/click handler - the delay is obviously enough
that IE has updated the DOM by the time the box is closed. Without the
alert, I just get the selections before the change.
Bah!

I think I know what might be happening. IE may not be updating the DOM
element until after the event--which would explain why in jQuery you're
not
able to get the elements via a CSS selector.
My example code actually using DOM methods to loop through the option
array--which is more efficient anyway.
So, what it should like you'll need to do is loop through the option
elements and check the selected property for each item.
Something like this:
<select id="transferFrom" />
<select id="transferTo" />
// set the onchange event
$("#transferFrom").bind(
"onchange",
function(){
moveOption(this, $("#transferTo")[0]);
}
);
// oFrom is a reference to the select element moving items from
// sTo is a reference to the select element we're moving item to
function moveOption(oFrom, oTo){
var iLen = oFrom.length;
for( var i=0; i < iLen; i++ ){
if( oForm.options[i].selected ){
// move item
oTo.options[oTo.length] = new Option(
oForm.options[i].text,
oForm.options[i].value
);
// remove item
oFrom.options[i] = null;
// since you just deleted a option, redo this
array
//position next loop
i--;
}
}
}
I did not test the code, but I think it should work. It's at least pretty
close.
