Accessing form elements

The following code is working fine in manipulating options in the select box, but its not working when I put it in the form. Please Help.

<html>
<head>
<title>Category list</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var categories=new Object();

categories['Accessories'] = 'Cosmetics/Perfumes|Jewellery|Handbags|Shoes|Watches';
categories['Entertainment/Media'] = 'Videos/Movies|Art|Photo|News|Television|Music';
categories['Automobile'] = 'Cars| Motorcycles| Tools & Supplies| Accessories';
categories['Books & Magazines'] = 'eBooks| Audio Books| Books| Magazines';
categories['Business & Career'] = 'Real Estate| Office| Productivity Tools| Employment| B-TO-B| Marketing';
categories['Apparel'] = 'Childrens| Mens| Womens';

function subcat(elem)
{
 var catarr;
 var subb=document.getElementById("subcat");
 subb.disabled=false; 
 subb.length=0;
 var cat=elem.options[elem.selectedIndex].text;
 
 if(categories[cat])
 {
   
  catarr=categories[cat].split('|');
  subb.options[0]=new Option('select subcat',' ');
  for(var i=0; i<catarr.length; i++)
  {
     subb.options[i+1]=new Option(catarr[i],catarr[i]);
  }
  
 }
 
}
</script>

<body>
<select id="cat" onChange="subcat(this,subcat)" style="width:200px;">
<option value="" selected="selected">Select Category</option>
<option value="">Accessories</option>
<option value="">Entertainment/Media</option>
<option value="">Automobile</option>
<option value="">Books & Magazines</option>
<option value="">Business & Career</option>
<option value="">Apparel</option>


</select>

<select id="subcat" style="width:200px; " disabled="true">

</select>
</body>
</html>


This seems to be a name collision problem. You have named both the JavaScript function and the Select with the same name i.e. subcat. Name each of these uniquely so there is no ambiguity in resolving the names. e.g.

<html>
<head>
<title>Catogery list</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var catogeries=new Object();

catogeries['Accessories'] = 'Cosmetics/Perfumes|Jewelry|Handbags|Shoes|Watches';
catogeries['Entertainment/Media'] = 'Videos/Movies|Art|Photo|News|Television|Music';
catogeries['Automobile'] = 'Cars| Motorcycles| Tools & Supplies| Accessories';
catogeries['Books & Magazines'] = 'eBooks| Audio Books| Books| Magazines';
catogeries['Business & Career'] = 'Real Estate| Office| Productivity Tools| Employment| B-TO-B| Marketing';
catogeries['Apparel'] = 'Childrens| Mens| Womens';

function GetSubCategeries(elem)
{

 var catarr;
 var subb=document.getElementById("subcat");

 subb.disabled=false; 
 subb.length=0;
 var cat=elem.options[elem.selectedIndex].text;

 if(catogeries[cat])
 {

  catarr=catogeries[cat].split('|');
  subb.options[0]=new Option('select subcat',' ');
  for(var i=0; i<catarr.length; i++)
  {
     subb.options[i+1]=new Option(catarr[i],catarr[i]);
  }

 }

}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<select id="cat" onChange="GetSubCategeries(this,subcat)" style="width:200px;">
<option value="" selected="selected">Select Catogery</option>
<option value="">Accessories</option>
<option value="">Entertainment/Media</option>
<option value="">Automobile</option>
<option value="">Books & Magazines</option>
<option value="">Business & Career</option>
<option value="">Apparel</option>


</select>
</br>
</br>
<select id="subcat" style="width:200px; " disabled="true">

</select>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Notice I have included the selects in a Form element and renamed the JavaScript function to GetSubCategories().
