Populating Dynamically Added Drop-down Menus

I've got a database written in MySQL with a bunch of PHP interfacing with it. What I want to do is populate drop down menus on a form from this database.

The way I went around solving my problem is as follows.

Code:

Which calls the function from the search.js file, which performs the following operation:

Code:

With element2 being the appropriate preemtied dropdown box, and addOption defined as follows:

Code:

So far so good. This works and produces the correct list of elements in the first dropdown box if the first dropdown box is the target. Here is where things begin to go wrong: On this form I have an add more elements button which is defined as follows:

Code:

And addElement being defined as such:

Code:

While this does successfully create all the cells I want it to create, when I attempt to select Country from the resulting dropdown, I get an empty drop down wit only the "Search For" present in it.

Firebug then proceeds to flag array in selectorfunc above:

Code:

What i believe is going on is that for SOME reason the newly created drop downs aren't being passed js_countries correctly. Unfortunately I don't know how to fix it.
