I'm trying set an option with a certain value to selected. I'm using this: $('#mySelect option[value="' + myValue + '"]').attr('selected', 'selected'); This has worked in another piece of code I wrote, but now IE 6 and 8 are throwing an error (in the debug bar). It's something similar to this: "The selected attribute couldn't be set. Unknown error." Anyone ever experienced something similar?
View 6 RepliesI have a little bit of a complex script where I have a <SELECT> that is pre-loaded with options that are loaded from a database in PHP. But, when this page is loaded the <SELECT> is disabled, and is only enabled when an onChange() is triggered on another <SELECT> that is situated on the same page.
Anyway, when I enable the <SELECT> I would like to have one of the <OPTION>'s selected (instead of having a blank <SELECT>).
The line of JavaScript that I have so far (but isn't really getting me anywhere) to try to select an <OPTION> when the <SELECT> is enabled is as follows...
document.forms['edit_consultant'].elements[con_elements[j]].options[selectedIndex].value = consultants[conid][j];
..where I am guessing that the 'options[selectedIndex].value' will select the <OPTION> with the value of consultants[conid][j] to be selected.
n the following script, I am trying to set selection to a select
option element, that is newly created within the script. It works fine
on IE installations on Windows 2000 and some XP machines. But on some
XP machines, the selection doesn't happen and it defaults to the first
element in the options array. Has anybody come across this problem ?
Any known workarounds?
I am using a jQuery AutoComplete plugin which fills in text as you type. I need to find a way when the page is submitted (submit.php) to determine if the user choose a company from the list, or if they typed in their own unique company.
If an option is selected, can i have jQuery post an extra $_POST variable like "new" or "existing" so I can pick it up on the submit.php page? Or when an option is selected, can I have .js write a hidden tag which contains the variable "existing"?

index.php
Code HTML4Strict:
<script type="text/javascript">

I´m trying to create a dropdown menu through createElement, browser is IE.
The problem is setting one of the options as "selected".
So far I have:
options = editor.config[txt];
el = document.createElement("select");
for (var i in options) {
var op = document.createElement("option");
op.appendChild(document.createTextNode(i));
op.value = options[i];
el.appendChild(op);
}
I get my dropdown menu, but how do I set selected?
I´ve tried
op.selected = true
without success.

There appears to be no difference between these two when the page loads.

If there is no "selected" then it always defaults to first value.

I'm having a slight problem with php pagination and jquery/js. On the following page [URL] you'll see an "athlete profile" area. Whenever an athlete photo is selected, javascript/php are used to switch out the athlete info. This works perfectly fine. The problem occurs if I use the left or right arrows to view more athletes (the left and right arrows are set with php pagination to switch to the next four records in the database). Whenever I do this, the athlete info defaults back to the first person from the initial load. Also, the javascript/jquery quits working and won't let me view the info for one of the newly displayed athletes. So I have two questions:
1) why it defaults back to the original athlete info? I'm assuming it has something to do with me not setting a cookie to remember the currently selected athlete.
2) Why does the javascript quit working when I view the next set of athletes?
Also, the jquery slideshow that I am implementing is an alteration of this: [URL]

In JS can you set the value of a SELECT dropdown box by text value, not index value?
The following will set the SELECT box by the index value, selecting the second value in the dropdown box
var varyear = 1
document.myform.year.options[varyear].selected = true;
however i want to set it like this...
var varyear = 2006
document.myform.year.options[varyear].selected = true;
...to set the SELECTED value to 2006...which doesn't work
