My proposal would return a single option element with the value "One". But the example here suggests a different use case. There are presumably three elements there, not one. If this is a use case we want to address, then let's go back to the use cases again: what is the problem we are trying to solve? When would you create a document fragment of some options, instead of just creating a <select> with options? -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
