I have the following select tag:
<html:select property="college" onchange="populateCourse();" >
<html  ption value="IPU" >IP University</html ption>
<html ption value="DU">Delhi University</html ption>
<html ption value="GJU">GJU</html ption>
</html:select>
I want to retreive the attribute value of <html ption> tag in populateCourse() javascript. The statement document.getElementById("college").selectedIndex is giving me integer index whereas document.getElementById("college").value is giving me the display value like IP University instead of attribute value IPU
How can i do this?

Naveen ,
can you post the code which you have written in the javascript function populateCourse()and "document.getElementById("college").value" will return only the attribute value and not the text in <html ption> or in normal <option> unless you have tried to retrieve the text like this
"document.getElementById("college").options[0].text".
