    <p>I have a list where I have implemented the cascading dropdown feature from <a href="http://spservices.codeplex.com/" rel="nofollow">http://spservices.codeplex.com/</a>. It is working fine, however I want to automatically select the first option in the last dropdown box. The code below works fine in Firefox and Chrome but not in Internet Explorer (IE6/7/8/9). Does anyone know why?</p> <pre><code>&lt;script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../../../../Hidden/jquery-1.5.2.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../../../../Hidden/jquery.SPServices-0.6.1.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"&gt; $(document).ready(function() { $().SPServices.SPCascadeDropdowns({ relationshipList: "Departments", relationshipListParentColumn: "Unit", relationshipListChildColumn: "CodeDesc", parentColumn: "Unit", childColumn: "Department" }); $().SPServices.SPCascadeDropdowns({ relationshipList: "Departments", relationshipListParentColumn: "CodeDesc", relationshipListChildColumn: "Title", parentColumn: "Department", childColumn: "DeptCode", completefunc: function () { $("select[title=DeptCode]").children().eq(1).attr("selected", "selected"); } }); }); </code></pre> <p>Markup:</p> <pre><code>&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td width="190px" valign="top" class="ms-formlabel"&gt;&lt;H3 class="ms-standardheader"&gt;&lt;nobr&gt;Department&lt;span class="ms-formvalidation"&gt; *&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/nobr&gt;&lt;/H3&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td width="400px" valign="top" class="ms-formbody"&gt;&lt;span dir="none"&gt;&lt;span style="vertical-align:middle"&gt;&lt;input name="ctl00$PlaceHolderMain$g_6f0051d2_c213_41cd_aa16_6fadb40281aa$ff5_1$ctl00$ctl01" type="text" id="ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_g_6f0051d2_c213_41cd_aa16_6fadb40281aa_ff5_1_ctl00_ctl01" class="ms-lookuptypeintextbox" onfocusout="HandleLoseFocus()" opt="_Select" title="Department" optHid="SPDepartment_Hiddenctl00$PlaceHolderMain$g_6f0051d2_c213_41cd_aa16_6fadb40281aa$ff5_1$ctl00" onkeypress="HandleChar()" onkeydown="HandleKey()" match="" choices="2231011D|1|2231022D|2|2231033D|3|2231033I|4|2232011D|5|2232011I|6|2232022D|7|2232044D|8|2232044I|9|2233011I|10|2233022I|11|2233044I|12|2234011D|13|2234011I|14|2234022D|15|2234022I|16|2234033D|17|2235011D|18|2235011I|19|2236011D|20|2236011I|21|2236022D|22|2236022I|23|2236033I|24|2242401I|25|2242502I|26|2244001I|27|2245001D|28|2245001I|29|2245500I|30|2246027D|31|2246027I|32|2246029D|33|2246029I|34|2246120D|35|2246125D|36|2246125I|37|2246130D|38|2246130I|39|2246254D|40|2246254I|41|2246255I|42|2246346D|43|2246346I|44|2246362D|45|2246362I|46|2246436D|47|2246436I|48|2246440D|49|2246440I|50|2246441D|51|2246801I|52|2249201I|53|2249902D|54" onchange="HandleChange()" /&gt;&lt;img alt="Display lookup values" onclick="ShowDropdown('ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_g_6f0051d2_c213_41cd_aa16_6fadb40281aa_ff5_1_ctl00_ctl01');" src="/_layouts/images/dropdown.gif" style="border-width:0px;vertical-align:middle;" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt;&lt;td width="190px" valign="top" class="ms-formlabel"&gt;&lt;H3 class="ms-standardheader"&gt;&lt;nobr&gt;DeptCode&lt;/nobr&gt;&lt;/H3&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td width="400px" valign="top" class="ms-formbody"&gt;&lt;span dir="none"&gt;&lt;span style="vertical-align:middle"&gt;&lt;input name="ctl00$PlaceHolderMain$g_6f0051d2_c213_41cd_aa16_6fadb40281aa$ff6_1$ctl00$ctl01" type="text" id="ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_g_6f0051d2_c213_41cd_aa16_6fadb40281aa_ff6_1_ctl00_ctl01" class="ms-lookuptypeintextbox" onfocusout="HandleLoseFocus()" opt="_Select" title="DeptCode" optHid="SPDeptCode_Hiddenctl00$PlaceHolderMain$g_6f0051d2_c213_41cd_aa16_6fadb40281aa$ff6_1$ctl00" onkeypress="HandleChar()" onkeydown="HandleKey()" match="" choices="(None)|0|2231011D|1|2231022D|2|2231033D|3|2231033I|4|2232011D|5|2232011I|6|2232022D|7|2232044D|8|2232044I|9|2233011I|10|2233022I|11|2233044I|12|2234011D|13|2234011I|14|2234022D|15|2234022I|16|2234033D|17|2235011D|18|2235011I|19|2236011D|20|2236011I|21|2236022D|22|2236022I|23|2236033I|24|2242401I|25|2242502I|26|2244001I|27|2245001D|28|2245001I|29|2245500I|30|2246027D|31|2246027I|32|2246029D|33|2246029I|34|2246120D|35|2246125D|36|2246125I|37|2246130D|38|2246130I|39|2246254D|40|2246254I|41|2246255I|42|2246346D|43|2246346I|44|2246362D|45|2246362I|46|2246436D|47|2246436I|48|2246440D|49|2246440I|50|2246441D|51|2246801I|52|2249201I|53|2249902D|54" onchange="HandleChange()" /&gt;&lt;img alt="Display lookup values" onclick="ShowDropdown('ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_g_6f0051d2_c213_41cd_aa16_6fadb40281aa_ff6_1_ctl00_ctl01');" src="/_layouts/images/dropdown.gif" style="border-width:0px;vertical-align:middle;" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; </code></pre> <p>Thanks, David</p>

    1. COPlease post all the relevant code and markup in order for someone to help you. That small function snippet is not enough. Please also list the version numbers of the browsers if your question is related to a specific browser.

    2. CONo code so I'll guess : shouldn't you use `.children().eq(0)` rather than `.children().eq(1)` ?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
