Description
Attempting to change the value of select drop-down fails without error on Firefox 7.0.1 when the option changing from is the first option in the list.
I tested this on Chrome and Safari and found it to work as expected.
The script used is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
<script src="js/jquery-ui-1.8.16.custom/js/jquery-1.6.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="chrtTimeSelect">
<select id="chrt_time">
<option value="1" selected="selected">24 hours</option>
<option value="2">6 months</option>
<option value="3">1 year</option>
<option value="4">5 years</option>
<option value="5">10 years</option>
<option value="6">20 years</option>
</select>
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var time_selection = "5";
$("#chrt_time option[selected]").removeAttr("selected");
$("#chrt_time option[value=" + time_selection + "]").attr("selected", "selected");
});
</script>
</body>
</html>

Solution founded! Use ".removeAttr("selected").removeAttr("selected")".
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Attributes aren't dynamic. Use
.val()on the select or.prop()on the option element you want to select:http://jsfiddle.net/dmethvin/KvdKE/
