For an html <select> control , does the browser store each <option> as a
separate element in the DOM tree ?

Or are the select options stored in some other manner ?

Something like

<select name="sample" id="sample">
            <option value="1">The first</option>
            <option value="2">The Second</option>
            <option value="3">The Third</option>
        </select>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            function showOptions()
            {
                var ddl=document.getElementById('sample');
                for(i=0;i<ddl.options.length;i++)
                {


                    alert('Text:' + ddl.options[i].text + ',value:' +
ddl.options[i].value);
                }
            }
        </script>
        <input type="button" onclick="showOptions()" value="Show options"
/>

should show you the idea
