select:dblclick - since what I was trying to achieve only needed the
double-click, it doesn't matter to me that click doesn't work as expected
(or as wished, anyway).

So in the end, what event are you listening to for the select element?

events

Dan,

Thanks so much for your help on this.
It now works - but it works because I'm now testing with dblclick instead
of click. dblclick works perfectly, click still doesn't (try your demo page
using click instead if you're interested). I assume this is because of the
slight additional time required for dblclick.

So the verdict? You cannot work out what <option>s are selected in the
click events for a <select> on IE6 without using a timer and callbacks.

Many thanks,
rob
