Problem is that when i recieve some value from my servlet that is not exist in DropDown list values then my DropDown is showing me as blank Text.
For Example:
I recieved var salutation = '${reqObj.salutation}'
salutation = "xyz"
then xyz is not present in DropDown list values then my DropDown list showing me as blank text.
I want to set Default value (<option selected value="null">Select</option>) on my DropDown list when i recieved value that is not present in DropDown list values.
I am using Java JSP with Eclipse Mars.
