Selects don't work in <hjq-dialog-and-button>

[ritchiey]

The chosen value of a select tag in a will be ignored when the dialog is submitted. Instead the default value for the select is submitted.

This seems to be because the formlet is cloned before it is serialized. Apparently JQuery clone doesn't copy DOM values like currently selected item in a .

I've worked around it by serializing the original element instead of the clone which is, of course, a shameful and ugly hack but works because I don't happen to have any sub-forms or formlets.
