Element#update needs to be special cased for OPTGROUP element
Reported by Ruggero | May 2nd, 2008 @ 01:50 PM | in 1.6.1
Setting optgroup element in a select, using an Ajax call, doesn't work on Opera 9.27.
js function:
new Ajax.Updater("selSquadre",
"/actions/getSquadreBySeasonAndDt.php",
{parameters: {id: $("sp").getValue()}});
selSquadre is an existing select element and getSquadreBySeasonAndDt.php produces simple html code.
It works fine in Firefox 2.0.0.14 and IE 7.0
Best regards
Ruggero

In the html page I have this fragment of html code:
The php script is really simple:
<?
echo("");
echo("foo");
echo("");
etc...
?>

Since its an ajax fix and probably related to Element#update() this fix is being pushed back to 1.6.1

This bug Opera related, see: http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/3040
The workaround is to avoid using innerHTML, even MSIE likes it.
