I would do it like this:

Get the select element:

const select_element = document.querySelector('select[name="curr_pay"]')

Select the option with the value attribute equal to 'EUR'

select_element.value = 'EUR'

You can visit this page at w3schools for more information.

auth – "success" but the currency hasn't changed – kreal Jun 17 '18 at 10:20
should i somehow set a variable first? select_element – kreal Jun 17 '18 at 10:37
select_element is a variable containing the element. I used document.querySelector to get it. You can also use for example document.getElementById or if you're using jQuery, you can use $('select[name="curr_pay"]')[0]. – Matěj Šmíd Jun 17 '18 at 13:16
I tried, there is no ID, unfortunately – kreal Jun 17 '18 at 13:44
The solution is - document.querySelector('option[value=" + value +"]').selected = true – kreal Jun 19 '18 at 12:47
