Description

I try to set a selected option in a Select box, the following code

works without jQuery function defined, once I un-comment the jQuery

part, it works in Firefox, but not in Safari any more.

<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.2.1.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

/* un commenting this will cause safari to fail

$(document).ready(function(){

})

*/

function foo() {

var s = document.getElementById( "02" );

s.selected = true;

s.defaultSelected = true;

};

</script>

</head>

<body onload="foo();">

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">

<select name="state" id="state">

<option id="01" value="NY">New York</option>

<option id="02" value="AL">Alaska</option>

<option id="04" value="IA">IOWA</option>

</select>

</form>

</body>

I suggest if you are using jQuery to take out the onload attribute from body and put the foo function call in the document ready function like:

$(document).ready(function () {
  foo();
});

It is possible there may be problems with some browser versions when using body onload and the document ready functionality.

That said, I was unable to reproduce this bug in Safari 3 Win. So if this really is a problem and there is a specific version that failed please reopen the bug with that information.
