I'm trying to add an option to a select:
function add(){
var opt = document.createElement("option");
opt.value = "0101";
opt.text = "foo";
}
This code works.
My question is why when I remove the double quotation marks from the line where I pass the value to the option does the value become 65?
@FelippeTadeu Javascript starts bit manipulation when it finds the value 0101 (which in 8bit ascii is equal to decimal 65);
When numbers / values that you want to assign to a non-variable are integers, or decimals ( 1.2 , pex)
I agree with you in parts, because if this code was written straight html you would be right, but this is being done in javascript. - Felippe Tadeu
This is right up to a point, as you can see in your code.
