Attributes

Attribute Description
CLASS Sets the style sheet class (specified in an in-line, linked or imported style sheet) to be applied to the element.
ID Sets a unique identifier for the element, allowing it to be referenced within scripting functions, or to specify a style sheet setting, set using a #<style_class> class selector.
LANG Specifies the language (using an ISO country code derived classifier) that the element is using, for browsers that support document localisation.
LANGUAGE Sets the scripting language that any in-line scripting events are written in.
NAME Sets the name of the name/value pair for the option, sent with the form data for processing, or to identify the option in scripting functions.
SELECTED A flag that specifies which <OPTION> element is selected upon initial display of the parent <SELECT> element.
STYLE Sets in-line style sheet settings for the element, which will over-ride any set in a <STYLE> block, or externally linked to the document.
TITLE Specifies an informational title for the element. The contents of the TITLE attribute may be presented as a Tool-Tip by some browsers.
VALUE Specifies the value of the name/value pair sent with the form for processing if the particular <OPTION> element is selected. If no VALUE="..." attribute is set, the value sent is the text displayed for the <OPTION> element.
