The right syntax is :
<option value="1" selected="selected">one</option>
If there is no "selected" then it always defaults to first value. How
can I tell if the page has loaded and no options have been selected?
This is the way the select element works, there is always a selected
element, even if you don't interact with the element.
You can do this:
<select id="one">
<option value="0">Select an option</option>
<option value="1">one</option>
<option value="2">two</option>
<option value="3">three</option>
</select>
selected_val = parseInt($('#one').val());
if( selected_val == 0) {
alert('please select an option');
} else {
alert('You have selected :'+selected_val);
}
Bye
