I expect that both methods are equally reliable across all browsers,
there is no need to use one or the other based on the browser. Which
one is "best" depends on the circumstance.
If the intention is to set say the third option to selected, I'd
likely use selectedIndex. If the intention was to set the option with
a particular value to selected, I'd iterate over the options
collection until I found the option, then set its selected property.
