I\'ve got a select list like this:
see this link
http://jsfiddle.net/DKKMN/
<select id="selectlist" name="selectproduct" >
<option value=""> --- Select product --- </option>
<option value="1">Product 1</option>
<option value="2">Product 2</option>
<option value="3">Product 3</option>
<option value="4" id="i">Product 4</option>
</select>
#i{display:none;}
create an id and in style make it invisble
To hide it, wrap it with a span tag.
$( "#selectlist option[value=4]" ).wrap( "<span>" );
To show it, unwrap the span tag if it has one.
if ( $( "#selectlist option[value=4]" ).parent().is( "span" ) ){
$( "#selectlist option[value=4]" ).unwrap();
}
You can hide option using following line include in scripting.
$("#selectlist option[value='4']").hide();
And if you want to again show this option use following line.
$("#selectlist option[value='4']").show();
<option value="4" style="display:none">Product 4</option>
hides the 4th option by default.
using css to hide options is not supported in IE, so you need to update the option
s list itself.
Try something like
$('#selectlist option[value=4]').remove();
Demo: Fiddle
or if you want to enable it later
var sel = $('#selectlist');
var opts = sel.find('option');
$(':checkbox').click(function(){
sel.empty().append(this.checked ? opts : opts.filter('[value!=4]'));
}).click()
Demo: Fiddle
I suppose you are using JQuery as well.
$("#selectlist option[value='option4']").remove();
