"Unknown list item type 'list'" error

Question

Hi Friends,
I am facing a problem while creating a listbox (in inDesign JScript). I have written the following syntax to create the same:
var myDialog1 = app.dialogs.add({name:"Simple Dialog"});
var styleList = new Array("Part Num","Part Title","Chap Num","Chap Title","Chap TOC");
var submenuItems = new Array("Style Formatting","Indents and Spacing","Paragraph Rules","Keep Options","Hyphenations","Nested Styles","Bullets and Numbering");
with(myDialog1){
with(dialogColumns.add()){
with(dialogRows.add()){
with(borderPanels.add()){
with(dialogColumns.add()){
var styles = dropdowns.add({stringList:styleList,selectedIndex:0,minWidth:133});
with(dialogColumns.add()){
var submenu = ListBox.add("list",submenuItems);
myDialog1.show();
But it is showing the following error message:
"Unknown list item type 'list'"
I want to know that what I should write in the parameter list. Please help me in this regard.
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi Adithi,
dialogColumns don't know a child called 'ListBox'.
You can use 'dropdowns' instead as you did in 'var styles = dropdowns.add({stringList:styleList,selectedIndex:0,minWidth:133});':
var submenu = dropdowns.add({stringList:submenuItems, selectedIndex:0});
