I'm having some weird issues.
I need a multiple select with some values in it, but somehow if I type
multiple and size values to select tag they are not working.
For that I decided to make a new clear file to test it and the result is same.
<form action="" method="post">
<select name="data[]" multiple size="5">
<option value="1">1Value</option>
<option value="2">2Value</option>
<option value="3">3Value</option>
<option value="4">4Value</option>
<option value="4">4Value</option>
<option value="4">4Value</option>
<option value="4">4Value</option>
</select>
</form>
These are my codes, and this is below is the result:

I can't even select them one by one, I mean browser is not highlighting the ones that I selected, I need to hold CTRL to hightlight them, as like working on windows I don't know where is the problem.
Most likely you have installed some Chrome extension that is preventing the Ctrl key to work as expected. Try removing that.
Have you bind it inside select tags?, you have to.
<select name="values" multiple>
<option value="1">value1</option>
<option value="2">value2</option>
<option value="3">value3</option>
<option value="4">value4</option>
</select>
Hope it helps.
Please go with HTML multiple Attribute.
Try Below code:
<select name="Custom_Name" multiple>
<option value="1">1Value</option>
<option value="2">2Value</option>
<option value="3">3Value</option>
<option value="4">4Value</option>
<option value="4">4Value</option>
<option value="4">4Value</option>
<option value="4">4Value</option>
Al the best.

I created a drop down list with links. It works properly except when I go back one page, then instead of the option which is 'selected' in the HTML, it shows the option I had navigated to. I would like it to reset, so that the page I'm on is the one being displayed when the list is collapsed. How can I fix this?
<div id="drop">
<select name="year" id="year" onchange="location = this.value;">
<option value="sermons-2023.html"selected>2023</option>
<option value="sermons-2022.html">2022</option>
<option value="sermons-2021.html">2021</option>
<option value="sermons-2020.html">2020</option>
<option value="sermons-2019.html">2019</option>
<option value="sermons-2018.html">2018</option>
<option value="sermons-2017.html">2017</option>
<option value="sermons-2016.html">2016</option>
<option value="sermons-2015.html">2015</option>
</select>
</div>
You have to save the value with js in localstoreg and then after returning to the previous page you can see that the value is the same
Here is the code I am having issues with:
<select name="webmenu" id="filter_option" style="width: 175px; " onchange="searchTree($(this).val());">
<option value="">--View All--</option>
<option value="Tree">Tree</option>
<option value="Dog Approval">Dog Approval</option>
<option value="Cat">Cat</option>
<option value="Sky">Sky</option>
I have an issue with the dropdown in that when I select this: <option value="">--View All--</option> in chrome the list does not load all default values when this option is selected.
When I go into chrome inspector and look at the line: <option value="">--View All--</option> the option value looks like this: <option>--View All--</option>
Why is it stripping out the value="" part of the code?
without the code ot link to that site I cannot guess what exactly is happening at your side.
but answering the question from the title…
you can only select multiple options if the attribute multiple is present in the tag select. then to make an option tag selected it needs the attribute selected.
so to select all options, all option tags need an attribute selected.
read up: select, multiple, option
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head><title></title></head>
<body>
<select size="5" multiple>
<option selected value="1">1</option>
<option selected value="2">2</option>
<option selected value="3">3</option>
<option selected value="4">4</option>
<option selected value="5">5</option>
</select>
</body></html>
if you can maybe add your problem to the above playground and a solution might be found through that.
If you have
<select>
<option value="val1">Teemo bot</option>
<option value="val2">Teemo mid</option>
<option value="val3">Akali mid</option>
</select>
How do I make it, when you click on one, it transfers you to another site.
you might want to use on change, since you are unable to select a option if first click redirects.
<select onchange="javascript:document.location=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;">
<option value="http://google.com">Google</option>
<option value="http://stackoverflow.com/">Stackoverflow</option>
</select>
I've managed to make myself drop menu navigation with html <select>. I've encountered one problem, though.
My external links aren't working. Namely Youtube.
Here is the code:
<select ONCHANGE="location = this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;">
<option value="" selected="selected">Navigation</option>
<option value="index.html">Home</option>
<option value="detroitvideoproduction.html">Video Production</option>
<option value="locationsounddetroit.html">Location Sound</option>
<option value="videoeditingdetroit.html">Video Editing</option>
<option value="custommotiongraphicsdetroit.html">Custom Graphics</option>
<option value="demoreel.html">Demo Reel</option>
<option value="http://www.youtube.com/user/VideoDetroitMI?ob=0">You Tube</option>
<option value="http://vimeo.com/liveoutloudproductions">Vimeo</option>
<option value="dslrrentalsdetroit.html">Camera Rental</option>
<option value="lectrosonicsrentalsdetroit.html">Audio Rental</option>
<option value="griprentalsdetroit.html">Grip Rental</option>
<option value="camerasupportdetroit.html">Camera Support</option>
<option value="about.html">About Us</option>
<option value="contact.html">Contact</option>
</select>
As you can see I have 2 external links. One to Vimeo, the other to Youtube.
When you select Vimeo it works perfectly fine and takes you to the appropriate vimeo page,
but when you select Youtube, it does nothing at all.
I know the URL in the link is correct, I checked it before I posted this.
Anybody know why Youtube wont work when Vimeo will?
Well you're not going to want to hear this, but it worked fine for me... i copied and pasted the code and tested it with Chrome and it went to your page just fine.
You might want to change onChange with window.location.href=this.value
So, the correct code is:
<select onChange="window.location.href=this.value">
<option value="" selected="selected">Navigation</option>
<option value="index.html">Home</option>
<option value="detroitvideoproduction.html">Video Production</option>
<option value="locationsounddetroit.html">Location Sound</option>
<option value="videoeditingdetroit.html">Video Editing</option>
<option value="custommotiongraphicsdetroit.html">Custom Graphics</option>
<option value="demoreel.html">Demo Reel</option>
<option value="http://www.youtube.com/user/VideoDetroitMI?ob=0">You Tube</option>
<option value="http://vimeo.com/liveoutloudproductions">Vimeo</option>
<option value="dslrrentalsdetroit.html">Camera Rental</option>
<option value="lectrosonicsrentalsdetroit.html">Audio Rental</option>
<option value="griprentalsdetroit.html">Grip Rental</option>
<option value="camerasupportdetroit.html">Camera Support</option>
<option value="about.html">About Us</option>
<option value="contact.html">Contact</option>
</select>
Some browsers may be objecting to seeing a ? in the string in a select list. Try converting your YouTube URL using TinyURL. I haven't tested, but I'm guessing that will do the trick.
I have a form with a select list of various office locations, i have it set so it should have the office initially selected BUT it does not seem to Work in IE!!! (no surprise)
here is what i am using to preselect:
<option selected value="Office 1">Office 1</option>
here is the site: http://www.nwtaxpreparation.com/offices/122andpowell.html
let me know if you have any solutions!
HTML 4 uses:
<option value="foo" selected>Bar</option>
XHTML REQUIRES:
<option value="foo" selected="selected">Bar</option>
To say that "there is no such thing as selected="whatever" is false!
I recently had the same problem with selected options tags. I had a series of select boxes like this:
<select>
<option value="dr">Day rate</option>
<option selected="selected" value="sv">Social value</option>
</select>
<select>
<option value="dr">Day rate</option>
<option selected="selected" value="sv">Social value</option>
</select>
I couldn't work out why the correct items wouldn't select. I later discovered that it was because there was no name attribute on the select item. Firefox seems to need this to work properly, even in version 15.
<select name="type">
<option value="dr">Day rate</option>
<option selected="selected" value="sv">Social value</option>
</select>
I changed it to the above and selected="selected" works fine now.
