[RESOLVED] Automatically select current day in dynamic select

Hi all,

I’m only new to javascript, but what I need to do is dynamically create a select, filling it with the days of the month. I also need the select to default to the current day. This is the code I currently have:

function fillDay(){
days = 0;

for(i = 1; i < 32; i++)
{
document.getElementById(‘currDay’).options[i] = new Option(days+i);
}

Then I call that function. Currently it fills a select with all the days of the month (eg 1, 2, 3 etc) and works perfectly. However, I have spent ages trying to figure out how to set the ‘selected’ attribute of the select to be the current day. Any idea on how to do that?

Thanks!

Also in #JavaScript _↴
