javascript get selected index from select using IE9

Hi,

This javascript code was OK with previous version of IE and still is with
Fire Fox but unfortunately not with IE9

Could some one help myself, Please?????

var cost = (indexsite .options[listecost.selectedIndex].value);

It is about a HTML select to get the selected index:

var indexsite = document.getElementById('collabro');
var val = (indexsite .options[collabro.selectedIndex].value).split("#");
matricule=val[2].replace("(","");
matricule_RO=matricule.replace(")","");
nom_RO = val[0]+' '+val[1];
indexsite = document.getElementById('listecost');
var cost = (indexsite .options[listecost.selectedIndex].value);

Thanks a lot??????????????

Try separating the .split() command, just a hunch.

This I've found in
http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_select_selectedindex.asp

function displayResult()
{
var x=document.getElementById("mySelect").selectedIndex;
var y=document.getElementById("mySelect").options;
alert("Index: " + y[x].index + " is " + y[x].text);
}
