[jQuery] Internet explorer:select tag manipulation does not ever work...?

[jQuery] Internet explorer:select tag manipulation does not ever work...?


why is it that in firefox you can enable and disable a select tag and
also select o deselect an option but it does not work with IE??
$(":text").dblclick(function() {
$("#myselect").attr('disabled',
"disabled").fadeOut('slow').children().removeAttr('selected');
});
That code only works in Firefox.... not IE...
help please, how do I get around this?
