Cloning Option in IE

[john]

From the mailing list:

when i clone one or more selected <option> from one <select> to another there are differences between IE and firefox.

in IE the cloned element (in the second <select>) stays selected. in firefox the cloned element is not selected.

so which one is correct?

the code:

$('#myselect option:selected').clone().appendTo($('#myselect2'));

This is a dup of #4193.
