Getting Error: DROPDOWN is not a function - Works in IE9
I'm trying to remove the default value selected in a drop-down box.
The call to the function is this: onchange="javascript:Remove_Default_Value(this);"
Here is the function:
function Remove_Default_Value(DROPDOWN) {
var i = DROPDOWN.options.length - 1;
for ( i; i >= 0; i--)
{
DROPDOWN(i).defaultSelected = false;
}
}
The error I'm getting is "DROPDOWN is not a function".
Any ideas is greatly appreciated.

It is not a function, but an array and you also need to use getElementsByTagName()
function Remove_Default_Value(DROPDOWN) {
var i = DROPDOWN.getElementsByTagName("option").length - 1;
for ( i; i >= 0; i-- )
{
DROPDOWN.getElementsByTagName("option")[i].defaultSelected = false;
}
}
