[jQuery] How to tell if <option> is selected when it always defaults to first value?
There appears to be no difference between these two when the page
loads.
<select id="one">
<option value="1">one</option>
<option value="2">two</option>
<option value="3">three</option>
</select>
- or -
<select id="one">
<option value="1" selected>one</option>
<option value="2">two</option>
<option value="3">three</option>
</select>
$('#id').val();
If there is no "selected" then it always defaults to first value. How
can I tell if the page has loaded and no options have been selected?
