Selected option in view when SIZE is greater than 1

How do you get the selected option to be in view on page load?

<select name="whatever" size="5">  
    <option value="1">1<开发者_JAVA百科/option>  
    <option value="2">2</option>  
    <option value="3">3</option>  
    <option value="4">4</option>  
    <option value="5">5</option>  
    <option value="6">6</option>  
    <option value="7" selected>7</option>  
    <option value="8">8</option>  
    <option value="9">9</option>  
    <option value="10">10</option>  
</select>

If I understand you correctly, you want the item shown in the dropdown list to be the selected item when the page loads. By default behavior the selected view does in fact show "in view" on page load. What are you seeing that you do not expect?

note: your html should be

<option value="7" selected="selected">7</option>

to be a valid html tag.

All browsers I've tested (Firefox, Chrome, Opera and IE7) scroll the contents to display the selected option.
