[jQuery] select() not working
Hello There,
I want to dynamically add a select option to an existing select
dropdown when a new country is added. This i was able to do using:
$jQ("#country_id option[value='new']").before("<option value='" +
value + "'>"+ name + "</option>");
After that i want to get selected the just now appended country option
and must change from the "--New Country--" . For that i used the select
() as below:
$jQ("#country_id option[value='" + value + "']").select();
This seems to be not working.
Even if i put a static value this is not changing:
$jQ("#country_id option[value='144']").select();
Any pointers ?
Thanks in Advance,
Regards
