there are a little error to select an item from a <select></select> object on Firefox and Google Chrome. the selection works without double quotes on ie, ff, and googlechrome, but with double quote only works on ie.

please, check the code 

<html>
<script language="JavaScript" src="jquery-1.5.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeItemIEFF(){//works on ie,ff,gc
	//here we use 456 to search the item (without doble quotes)
	$('#idSelect option[text*=456]').attr('selected',true);
}
function changeItemIE(){//only works on ie
	//here we use "456" to search the item (with doble quotes)
	$('#idSelect option[text*="456"]').attr('selected',true);
}
</script>
<body>
<select id="idSelect">
	<option>123-item1</option><option>456-item2</option><option>789-item3</option>
</select><br/>

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project!

A quick look at the API will show you that the quotes are required:
