I have 2 select inputs and I filling them with an array of years.

  • 0

I have 2 select inputs and I filling them with an array of years. After that I want to set currentYear the selected value for every Select. I hacve this code but only works with first Select I don’t understand why.

Everything works great with jQuery 1.4.3, 1.4.2 fails :_(

I’m trying this without success 🙁 only fisrt has selected value OK. Can be a problem in versions? IE6, asp.net 2.0, jquery 1.4.2. For example, "$(sinceComboSelector).val(currentYear);" doesn’t work i have to do a "$(‘#cmbAnyDesde option[value=’ + currentYear + ‘]’).attr(‘selected’, ‘selected’);" 🙁

    I tested here, with this code above, and works:

    $(document).ready(function (){

  loadYears();

});

var loadYears = function () {
  var currentYear = new Date().getFullYear(),
    years = [],
    firstYear = currentYear - 7,
    lastYear = currentYear + 3,
    sinceComboSelector = "#cmbAnyDesde",
    toComboSelector = "#cmbAnyHasta",
    i;

  for (i = firstYear; i <= lastYear; i++){
    years.push(i);
  }

  $(sinceComboSelector).find('option').remove();

  $(toComboSelector).find('option').remove();

  $.each(years, function(key, value) {
    $(sinceComboSelector)
      .append($("<option></option>")
      .attr("value", value)
      .text(value));

    $(toComboSelector)
      .append($("<option></option>")
      .attr("value", value)
      .text(value)); ;
  });

  $(sinceComboSelector).val(currentYear);
  $(toComboSelector).val(currentYear);
};
