Question

there are many examples out there of how to loop through Select Options, e.g.

Iterate through <select> options

but my problem is that I have to loop through an HTML string e.g. :

 var s = "<option value="0">OptA</option><option value="1">OptB</option><option value="2">OptC</option>"

How can I loop through each item please?
the idea is that I have a string obtained from a dropdownlist.innerHTML, and an ID to find between all the options in the innerHTML:

GetValueFromHTML(iValueToFind,strHTML){
  $(strHTML).each(function () {
    var iTempValue = 
    var OptionText = 
    if  (iTempValue == iValueToFind){
      alert(OptionText );
      }
     })
}

This seems to give the result you want, you were very close. Just needed the $(this).val() really:

function GetValueFromHTML(valueToFind ,html){
    $(html).each(function () {
        var val = $(this).val();
        if  (val == valueToFind){
            alert($(this).text());
        }
    });
}
