Angular js is adding empty option in dropdown.
I am not using ng-options
Just a plain ng-model
<select ng-model="newOpportunity.meetingStatusId" style="width: 127px;">
<option value="" selected="selected">Select</option>
<option value="10">Business Initiate</option>
<option value="9">Business Reported</option>
<option value="1">Business Reject</option>
</select>
When i am exploring Dom option In Intenet Explorer it is showing
<select style="width: 127px;" ng-model="newOpportunity.meetingStatusId">
<option value="? number:9 ?"></option>
<option selected="selected" value="?">Select</option>
<option value="10">Business Initiate</option>
<option value="9">Business Reported</option>
<option value="1">Business Reject</option>
</select>
How to get rid of these blank option without using ng-options? I am stuck around this problems since 4 days!!
Initialise your model object as bellow.
$scope.newOpportunity={
'meetingStatusId' : ""
};

I have following drop-down :
<select class="form-control">
<option value=1>Pooja Parikh</option>
<option value=2>Poorti Parikh</option>
<option value=3>Agent 2</option>
<option value=6>AWS Bot AWS Bot</option>
</select>
I want the above dropdown with a bootstrap badge, like following
<select class="form-control">
<option value=1>Pooja Parikh</option>
<option value=2>Poorti Parikh</option>
<option value=3>Agent 2</option>
<option value=6>AWS Bot AWS Bot <span class='badge badge-info'>Bot</span> </option>
</select>
when I tried the above code, its giving simple dropdown options with text only (not giving badge)
I was wondering if anyone one helps me out to implement the above.
Thanks
I am trying to hide the placeholder text in a dropdown menu from showing up as a selectable option. I have searched other options on stack overflow and tried the following solution but none have worked:
<option style="display:none" >Select Stop</option>
<option value="" disabled selected hidden >Select Stop</option>
<option value="" disabled selected style="display: none;">Select Stop</option>
My code looks like this which WORKS in stackoverflow but not when I put it into my site using latest version of chrome...
<select>
<option value="" disabled selected hidden>Select Stop</option>
<option value="home">home</option>
<option value="school">school</option>
<option value="office">office</option>
</select>
Not sure what are you actually trying achieve, to hide the select or option simply add disabled to them, see below, i have 2 select, one with option disbaled other one the entire select disabled
<select>
<option value="">Select Stop</option>
<option value="home" >home</option>
<option value="school" disabled>school</option>
<option value="office" >office</option>
</select>
<select disabled>
<option value="" >Select Stop</option>
<option value="home" >home</option>
<option value="school" >school</option>
<option value="office" >office</option>
</select>
Maybe you might want to add some JQuery into your file
$(function() {
$('.location').find('option:contains(office)').hide();
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select class='location'>
<option value="select stop">Select Stop</option>
<option value="home">home</option>
<option value="school">school</option>
<option value="office">office</option>
</select>
I must have missed something very trivial, but I cant figure it out.
The select below shows 5 options (as expected), but I cant get access to option 6 and 7. The scrollbar is shown, but the browser doesnt allow me to move it down
<select size='5' multiple name='driver[]'>
<option value= >(No Driver Filter)</option>
<option value=drivername=''></option>
<option value=drivername='alex'>alex</option>
<option value=drivername='marc'>marc</option>
<option value=drivername='frank'>frank</option>
<option value=drivername='james'>james</option>
<option value=drivername='michael'>michael</option>
</select>
I think your code is not well formatted . You should use double quotes for attribute values.
<select size="5" multiple="multiple" name="driver[]">
<option value="" >(No Driver Filter)</option>
<option value="drivername=''"></option>
<option value="drivername='alex'">alex</option>
<option value="drivername='marc'">marc</option>
<option value="drivername='frank'">frank</option>
<option value="drivername='james'">james</option>
<option value="drivername='michael'">michael</option>
</select>
I am trying to make a dropdown list that contains a placeholder. It doesn't seem to support placeholder="stuff" as other forms do. Is there a different way to obtain a placeholder in my dropdown?
Yes just "selected disabled" in the option.
<select>
<option value="" selected disabled>Please select</option>
<option value="">A</option>
<option value="">B</option>
<option value="">C</option>
</select>

Use hidden:
<select>
<option hidden >Display but don't show in list</option>
<option> text 1 </option>
<option> text 2 </option>
<option> text 3 </option>
</select>
dropdown or select doesn't have a placeholder because HTML doesn't support it but it's possible to create same effect so it looks the same as other inputs placeholder
$('select').change(function() {
if ($(this).children('option:first-child').is(':selected')) {
$(this).addClass('placeholder');
} else {
$(this).removeClass('placeholder');
}
});
.placeholder{color: grey;}
select option:first-child{color: grey; display: none;}
select option{color: #555;} // bootstrap default color
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select class="form-control placeholder">
<option value="">Your Placeholder Text</option>
<option value="1">Text 1</option>
<option value="2">Text 2</option>
<option value="3">Text 3</option>
</select>
if you want to see first option in list remove display property from css
Most of the options are problematic for multi-select.
Place Title attribute, and make first option as data-hidden="true"
<select class="selectpicker" title="Some placeholder text...">
<option data-hidden="true"></option>
<option>First</option>
<option>Second</option>
</select>
If you are initializing the select field through javascript, the following can be added to replace the default placeholder text
noneSelectedText: 'Insert Placeholder text'
example: if you have:
<select class='picker'></select>
in your javascript, you initialize the selectpicker like this
$('.picker').selectpicker({noneSelectedText: 'Insert Placeholder text'});
Add hidden attribute:
<select>
<option value="" selected disabled hidden>Please select</option>
<option value="">A</option>
<option value="">B</option>
<option value="">C</option>
</select>
Try this:
<select class="form-control" required>
<option value="" selected hidden>Select...</option>
when using required + value="" then user can not select it
using hidden will make it hidden from the options list, when the user open the options box
Try #title = "stuff". It worked for me.
All this options are.... improvisations.
Bootstrap already offers a solution for this.
If you want to change the placeholder for all your dropdown elements you can change the value of
noneSelectedText
in the bootstrap file.
To change individualy, you can use TITLE parameter.
example:
<div class="form-group">
<label class="control-label col-xs-2" id="country">Continent:</label>
<div class="col-xs-9">
<select name="zones[]" class="selectpicker" title="All continents" id="zones" multiple >
<option value="Africa">Africa</option>
<option value="Asia">Asia</option>
<option value="North America">America North</option>
<option value="South America">America South</option>
<option value="Antarctica">Antarctica</option>
<option value="Australia">Australia</option>
<option value="Europe">Europe</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
Using Bootstrap, This is what you can do. Using class "text-hide", the disabled option will be shown at first but not on the list.
<select class="form-control" >
<option selected disabled class="text-hide">Title</option>
<option>A</option>
<option>B</option>
<option>C</option>
</select>
in bootstrap-select.js Find title: null, and remove it.
add title="YOUR TEXT" in <select> element.
Fine :)
Example:
<select title="Please Choose one item">
<option value="">A</option>
<option value="">B</option>
<option value="">C</option>
</select>
I think, the Dropdown box with a class and JQuery code to disable the first option for user to select, will work perfectly as Select Box placeholder.
<select class="selectboxclass">
<option value="">- Please Select -</option>
<option value="IN">India</option>
<option value="US">America</option>
</select>
Make the first option disabled by JQuery.
<script>
$('select.selectboxclass option:first').attr('disabled', true);
</script>
This will make the first option of Dropdown as Placeholder and user will no longer able to select the first option.
Hope It helps!!
The right way to achieve what you are looking for is to use the title attribute.
The title global attribute contains text representing advisory information related to the element it belongs to.
title="Choose..."
for example:
<select class="form-control selectpicker" name="example" title="Choose...">
<option value="all">ABCDEFG</option>
<option value="all">EFG</option>
</select>
check the documentation for more info about bootstrap-select
custom-button-text
Here's another way to do it
<select name="GROUPINGS[xxxxxx]" style="width: 60%;" required>
<option value="">Choose Platform</option>
<option value="iOS">iOS</option>
<option value="Android">Android</option>
<option value="Windows">Windows</option>
</select>
"Choose Platform" becomes the placeholder and the 'required' property ensures that the user has to select one of the options.
Very useful, when you don't want to user field names or Labels.
Bootstrap select has an noneSelectedText option. You can set it via data-none-selected-text attribute.
Documentation.
For .html page
<select>
<option value="" selected disabled>Please select</option>
<option value="">A</option>
<option value="">B</option>
<option value="">C</option>
</select>
for .jsp or any other servlet page.
<select>
<option value="" selected="true" disabled="true">Please select</option>
<option value="">A</option>
<option value="">B</option>
<option value="">C</option>
</select>
Using bootstrap, if you need to also add some values to the option to use for filters or other stuff you can simply add the class "bs-title-option" to the option that you want as a placeholder:
<select class="form-group">
<option class="bs-title-option" value="myVal">My PlaceHolder</option>
<option>A</option>
<option>B</option>
<option>c</option>
</select>
Bootstrap adds this class to the title attribute.
Solution for Angular 2
Create a label on top of the select
<label class="hidden-label" for="IsActive"
*ngIf="filterIsActive == undefined">Placeholder text</label>
<select class="form-control form-control-sm" type="text" name="filterIsActive"
[(ngModel)]="filterIsActive" id="IsActive">
<option value="true">true</option>
<option value="false">false</option>
</select>
and apply CSS to place it on top
.hidden-label {
position: absolute;
margin-top: .34rem;
margin-left: .56rem;
font-style: italic;
pointer-events: none;
}
pointer-events: none allows you to display the select when you click on the label, which is hidden when you select an option.
angular html css
<option value="" defaultValue disabled> Something </option>
you can replace defaultValue with selected but that would give warning.
This is for Bootstrap 4.0, you only need to enter selected on the first line, it acts as a placeholder. The values are not necessary, but if you want to add value 0-... that is up to you.
Much simpler than you may think:
<select class="custom-select">
<option selected>Open This</option>
<option value="">1st Choice</option>
<option value="">2nd Choice</option>
</select>

I want to have a drop down list using the select, option tag... but when it first appear I want it to have an information, such as "Please select a name" then the user clicks on the drop down list and selects from the available option... I tried to made the "Please select a name" as an option, but then the user will be able to select this... which is not what I want. Do I need to use javascript to have this feature or what do I need to do?
If there'a jquery way to do this, this would be much helpful
Try this:
<select>
<option value="" disabled="disabled" selected="selected">Please select a name</option>
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
</select>
When the page loads, this option will be selected by default. However, as soon as the drop-down is clicked, the user won't be able to re-select this option.
<select>
<option value="" style="display:none">Choose one provider</option>
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
</select>
This way the user cannot see this option, but it shows in the select box.
Have <option value="">- Please select a name -</option> as the first option and use JavaScript (and backend validation) to ensure the user has selected something other than an empty value.
This is an old post, but this worked for me
<select>
<option value="" disabled selected>Please select a name...</option>
<option>this</option>
<option>that</option>
</select>
<select name="test">
<option hidden="true">Please select a name</option>
<option value="Cash">Cash</option>
<option value="Draft">Demand Draft No.</option>
<option value="Cheque">Cheque No.</option>
</select>
Maybe this can help you resolve without JavaScript
http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/forms/option.html
See DISABLE option
Simple, I suppose. The onclick attribute works nicely...
<select onchange="if(this.value == '') this.selectedIndex = 1; ">
<option value="">Select an Option</option>
<option value="one">Option 1</option>
<option value="two">Option 2</option>
</select>
After a different option is selected, if the first option is selected, Option 1 will be selected. If you want an explanation on the javascript, just ask.
<select>
<option value="" disabled="disabled" selected="selected">Please select name</option>
<option value="Tom">Tom</option>
<option value="Marry">Marry</option>
<option value="Jane">Jane</option>
<option value="Harry">Harry</option>
</select>
If you want to achieve the same for the jquery-ui selectmenu control then you have to set 'display: none' in the open event handler and add '-menu' to the id string.
<select id="myid">
<option value="" disabled="disabled" selected="selected">Please select name</option>
<option value="Tom">Tom</option>
<option value="Marry">Mary</option>
<option value="Jane">Jane</option>
<option value="Harry">Harry</option>
</select>
$('select#listsTypeSelect').selectmenu({
change: function( event, data ) {
alert($(this).val());
},
open: function( event, ui ) {
$('ul#myid-menu li:first-child').css('display', 'none');
}
});
I'm sorry to necro an old post - but I found a better way of doing this
What I believe this poster wanted was :
<label for="mydropdown" datalabel="mydropdown">Country:</label>
<select name="mydropdown">
<option value="United States">United States</option>
<option value="Canada">Canada</option>
<option value="Mexico">Mexico</option>
<option value="Other">Not Listed</option>
</select>
I found this information in another post while searching for this same answer - Thanks
<select>
<option value="" disabled selected hidden>Select an Option</option>
<option value="one">Option 1</option>
<option value="two">Option 2</option>
</select>
Make a JavaScript control that before the submit cheek that the selected option is different to your first option
This is how I do this with JQuery...
using the jquery-watermark plugin (http://code.google.com/p/jquery-watermark/)
$('#inputId').watermark('Please select a name');
works like a charm!!
There is some good documentation at that google code site.
Hope this helps!
<select>
<option value="" disabled="disabled" selected="selected">Please select a
developer position</option>
<option value="1">Beginner</option>
<option value="2">Expert</option>
</select>
From what I understand, you are looking for a placeholder for your select options, which has to be selected when no value is pre-selected, and cannot be selected by user, or seen.
<select name="selectOne">
<option value="" disabled selected hidden>Choose an option</option>
<option value="this">This</option>
<option value="that">That</option>
</select>
