Nevermind. I got it to work. Thanks for the tips. They helped.

Subject: [jQuery] Manipulation of select objects
I am working on a site where various dynamic content will be created
each session. There will end up being between 1 and a very large
number of select boxes on the page. Users are able to add items that
need to be inserted into each select box. I found a plugin that allows
me to addOption and adjust a select, but I can't seem to make it run
through all select boxes on the page. I am quite new to jquery and any
assistance would be very appreciated. Basically I need to know what
selector to use to run through all selects. And if anyone is familiar
with the addOption plugin and knows if it will work across multiple
selects that would be fantastic too. If it won't anyone that can point
me in the right direction to hand writing out the code for the select
manipulation would be great. I will end up removing items from the
select as well.

Apparently the addOption() plugin doesn't like using $(this). I
thought I had tried that loop before, that was the reason. I am sure
there is a way to add and remove options without that plugin. Any
pointers on where to start there?
