Reset A Select Element

how to make the first option selected? I tried this but doesnt work: selectElement.options[0].selected=true; it gives me this error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read propert

Solution 1:

Try this

document.getElementById('mySelect').selectedIndex = 0;

Solution 2:

Try this (See the demo)

HTML

<selectid="selectElement"><option>First</option><optionselected>Second</option></select>

JavaScript

selectElement.options[0].selected="selected";

Or you can do selectElement.options[0].selected=true;

Hope this works for you.
