select list show/hide elements: problems in IE Options

I am trying to do this simple thing in html. I have a select list and
when you click the button the first element should hide. It works
fine
in firefox but not in IE. I have tried all sorts of things but could
not do it. Any help...




a
b
c

onClick="javascript:show_hide()">

Get rid of this:

var a = document.getElementById("a");
a.style.display="none";

and use this instead:

document.getElementById("a").style.display="none";

Also, I presume you have a form enclosing the form elements.
