Actually, this seems to work to remove the OPTGROUPs:

For Each oChild In AvailableOptions.Children

oChild.RemoveNode

Thanks

Ok, this is clearing my OPTIONs ; but this is not clearing my OPTGROUPs. How do I clear the groups?

I.e. groups added with the following VBScript code:

set oSelect = document.getElementById("AvailableOptions")

Set oGroup = Document.createElement("OPTGROUP")

oGroup.Label = sText

oSelect .AppendChild(oGroup)

Thanks
