HTML DOM Option Object
Option Object
The Option object represents an option in a dropdown list in an HTML form.
For each instance of an <option> tag in an
HTML form, an Option object is created.
You can access an Option object by searching through the elements[] array
of the form, or by using document.getElementById().
