Pre-select an item in drop-down list

[Shaun Summers]

Hello,

I have a form that users are to complete. It contains a dropdown list generated from the database on page load. I would like to pre-select one of the options. I've tried running this javascript on page load (after first populating the lists) but nothing happens:

code
Appery("people_lookup").val("Me").trigger("change");
/code

Shaun,

You should run this code not on load page but on the success of the service from which you map in select.
You may also try this code:
preAppery("people_lookup").val("Me").selectmenu( "refresh" );/pre
