Hi Peter and John,
FF is so... tolerant to accept the value of the option as the same as it is displayed in the select list.
where IE is so... prudence, that we have to explictly tell it
ie Post Element Text in IE should be like this
<select id="unit" onchange="TankUnit();" >
<option> -S-</option>
<option value="ml"> ml</option>
<option value="kg"> kg </option>
</select> Units
