Probably.
In my table definitions I do use comments to give directives, however, this
is a custom form on a landing page, and I think labels and comments in this
case make the form look ugly, so I use placeholders to replace the labels
and comments. For a select this doesn't work:
form.element('select[name=navID]').update(_placeholder='Select 4 functions')
Therefore, I was looking for a way to achieve the same using the zero
option. This doesn't work:
form.element('select[name=navID]').append(0,"Select 4 functions")
TypeError: append() takes exactly 2 arguments (3 given)
But the solution Richard first provided (which for whatever reason, I did
not give a try first, sorry)
does work.
Why doesn't append work and why does insert?
Kind regards,
Annet
