Question

i have the following select element:

<select id='payTypes'>
  <option value='1'>Cash</option>
  <option value='2'>Check</option>
  <option value='3'>Standard</option>
</select>

can someone show me how to remove the option Standard from the list

Answer 1

Use jQuery to get the payTypes select and the eq selector to get the third (it’s zero based so i use 2) and then use the remove method:
$("#payTypes option").eq(2).remove()

EDIT:

$("#payTypes option").each(function() {
if($(this).val() > 2) { //if it's not check or cash
$(this).remove();
}
}
