You may find that using OPTGROUP eg:
<optgroup label="Option name">
is better still as: "The optgroup tag groups options in a select box. It requires a label attribute, the value of which is displayed as a non-selectable pseudo-heading preceding that group in the drop-down list of visual browsers" - http://www.htmldog.com/guides/htmladvanced/forms/

G'day
I try validate <option selected> but the validator says:
"the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified"
This form is posible to validate ?

XML does not support attribute minimization. Attribute-value pairs must be
written in full. Attribute names such as compact and checked cannot occur in
elements without their value being specified.

To fix the problem, change your option as follows:
<option selected="selected">Option name</option>
