    copied!<p>I want to use the value from 'standings' to determine what is printed out in 'leaderboard' I can't seem to figure out where I am going wrong. I think this is the closest I have come to getting it to work. How can I pass the local variable team from inside the function to 'leaderboard'?</p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http-//www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;Jose Cuervo PBV&lt;/title&gt; &lt;link href="rosters.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /&gt; &lt;meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; var teams = new array(5); teams[0] = "Jenny Kropp Whitney Pavlik"; teams[1] = "Jennifer Fopma Brooke Sweat"; teams[2] = "Kristen Batt Raquel Ferreira"; teams[3] = "Emily Day Heather Hughes"; teams[4] = "Christal Engle Tealle Hunkus"; function listTeam(sel) { var i = document.getElementById('standings').value; var team = teams[i]; } &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;img src = "./images/Cuervo_Logo.jpg" alt = "Cuervo PBV Logo" /&gt; &lt;select id='standings' name='standings' onchange="listTeam(this)"&gt; &lt;option value='0'&gt;First Place&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value='1'&gt;Second Place&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value='2'&gt;Third Place&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value='3'&gt;Fourth Place&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value='4'&gt;Fifth Place&lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt; &lt;select id='leaderBoard' name='leaderBoard' multiple="multiple" size="1" style="width: 300px;" &gt; &lt;option&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; document.write(team); &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>
