Hi,
On that site there's also a "Make" drop down as in your code, but it is different?
eg.
So the name and id are different as is the content.
Note that name and id are case sensitive and if you have both then it is recommended to choose the "id" over the "name" as the html specification demands that "id" is unique.
The problem here is the "optgroup" part that splits the selection into two parts.
One that is "Popular" and another one that is defined as "Other"
Once you select an item in Popular, for example "Audi" then you can programmatically change it like so:
Document.ElementValueByName("make") = "GMC"
But that isn't a solution, changing it to use Id doesn't help either.
But I played a bit with it and noticed that it works fine if you first give the html element the focus.
Which means that the following actually does work:
So I'm "clicking on it" as a way to focus the html element, after which I can select it programmatically without any issue.
