Description

This problem seems to be in the serializeArray method. If no selection is made then it's value is null and ignored.

What would be the desired behavior for that case? Do you have a standards reference for it?

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to worksforme
  • Component changed from unfiled to ajax

The spec seems pretty clear that select multiple with no elements selected are not considered successful, and therefore should not be serialized.

Please follow the  bug reporting guidlines and use  jsFiddle when providing test cases and demonstrations instead of pasting the code in the ticket.
