PopUpList Question

This is the deal.  I want to remove the items from a popuplist and put in  
new items. The following method does not work correctly.

- deleteAllItems:aPopUpList
{
	while ([aPopUpList count])
		[aPopUpList removeItemAt:0];
	return self;
}

Execution does leave the method making me think that aPopUpList is empty,  
however, the item that is selected when this methods is invoked is not  
removed.

I guess I could programmatically (yuk!) create a new popUpList and replace  
the old one, but that still doesn't answer my question about why my method  
doesn't work correctly.
