Pick A Book, Chapter & Verse
This JavaScript code (that goes with the HTML
form) was very difficult to create. Just the array
structure for each of the Holy Bible's books took a couple days to
create the format that I could work with. I was determined to get
this code working as any other examples we saw on the internet would
redirect to a new page to generate the proper amount of
chapters/verses per book and we wanted the user to stay on one page
until their final selection was made (allows for changing your mind
of correcting errors). No where could I find help for this type of
script and no source code samples were to be found; I had to do it
on my own! I believe this is the first time anyone has created such
a dropdown option form of this type. I would like to take the credit
for this, thanks!

Below is the JavaScript array for all 66 books of the Bible. If we analyze book#8 the Book of Ruth (book[8]="22,23,18,22") you will see it has 4 sets of numbers. This means that Ruth has 4 chapters. Now each set of numbers represents the number of verses that chapter has so we can see that Ruth Chapter 1 has 22 verses (Ruth chap#2 has 23 verses, Ruth Chap#3 has 18 verses, Ruth chapter#4 has 22 verses).
var book = new Array();
