Mark Diggory commented on DS-1022:
----------------------------------

Art Lowel provides a solution to this problem for us...

The problem is lines 98-101:

authInput is initialized as a jQuery object (which is a kind of array). If it 
has a length greater than 0 authInput is set to the first element of that array.

But there's no 'else'. Therefore if $('#' + authorityID); doesn't exist, 
authInput will be an empty array and will not fail the (authInput != null) 
check on line 104.

tl;dr add this between lines 101 and 102:
else {
   authInput = null;
}
                
> Cannot select an option from Authority Control in Chrome or FF
