I am having a problem trying to set a value in an HTML select element (combo) box.  Here is the source from the site

<form name=form1 method="get" action="http://some-domain-name.me/strings.php">
Search By:<select name="search_type" onChange="displaydesc(document.form1.search_type, thetext1, 'textcontainer1')" >
<option />address<option />mapcode<option />name<option />parcel<option />section<option />subdivision</select>
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="search_txt" />
<INPUT TYPE="submit"/>
</form>
I have disabled javascripting due to a hideAll() function in the Body onload. I get this error
[java] Error Occured= May not set parameter 'search_type' to 'address'. Value must b
e one of: { , , , , , , , , , }

Anyone know how to resolve this?
