DROP DOWN box no longer works in move from PHP to Javascript
We are trying to offload load from the server to the browser. We have a drop down box with SELECT OPTION statements that have been transferred from PHP to Javascript. drop-down box works the first time. The updated SELECT is transferred back to PHP code with a JSON return. Now, the dropdown box no longer "works."
Please wait while I put on my telepathy helmet so I can see your code through your eyes.... Hmmm no. Too much interference. Please post the code here instead and wrap it in [ code] ... [/ code] tags

// Here we have the data structure that is returned from xml.flight.counters - so we can now pass this into

Not sure what you expect from moving this dropdown list from php(on the server) to javascript (on the client)
In both cases your list will be populated on the server by php...

Any errors in the console?
Does the url to the php work on its own (look in Chrome network tab)
BTW the code is not using jQuery to it's fullest. It is not optimal.

This snippet can replace your ifs
o += '<option value="0" selected="selected">Infini te</option >';
if (scheduleViewDays >0) for (var i=1;i<=10;i++) {
var sel = i==scheduleViewDays?' selected="selected"':"";
o += '<option value="'+i+'" '+sel+'>'+i+'</option>';
}
}
o += '<option value="0" selected="selected">Infini
if (scheduleViewDays >0) for (var i=1;i<=10;i++) {
var sel = i==scheduleViewDays?' selected="selected"':"";
o += '<option value="'+i+'" '+sel+'>'+i+'</option>';
}
}

Thanks. I will implement the code snippet to replace ifs,
and check on the url.
How can I optimize JQuery?
Thanks so much again.

Use $("#scheduled").append instead of that o += for example
