bootstrap drop down set selected value

Question

I have a Bootstrap drop down list

Answer 1

Just replace:

$("#ulGenres li a").data("[pdsa-dropdown-val= " + id + "]")

with

$("#ulGenres li a").filter("[data-pdsa-dropdown-val=" + id + "]")

Working example:

function DataLoad() {
  var id = $("#TourId").val();
  $("#Details").load('/umbraco/Surface/Tour/GetTourDetails?tourId=' + id);
}
$(document).ready(function () {
  DataLoad();
  $("#ulGenres li a").on("click", function () {
    // Get text from anchor tag
    var id = $(this).data('pdsa-dropdown-val');
    $("#TourId").val(id);
    // Add text and caret to the Select button
    var text = $(this).text();
    $("#selectButton").html(text + '&nbsp;<span class="caret"></span>');
    // Put text into hidden field from model
    $("#SelectedText").val(text);
    DataLoad();
  });
  var id = $("#TourId").val();
  $("#ulGenres li a").filter("[data-pdsa-dropdown-val=" + id + "]").trigger("click");
  //$("#ulGenres li:first-child a").trigger("click");
});
