Set default value

[smurfkungen]

How can i set default value of the combo box.

I am using asp and want to set the comboxi according the a hidden field $('.ComboBox').val(document.getElementById('<%#Me.hdnHostName.ClientID%>').value);

But I am unable to refresh the combo based on this value.

I have tried $('.ComboBox').refresh; to no avail

Thank you for some help

Please try: $(".ComboBox").data('combobox').refresh();

if($("option[value='"+selectVal+"']",this.ui.select).length > 0){
    this.ui.select.val(selectVal);
    this.ui.select.data("combobox").refresh();
    this.ui.select.data("combobox").triggerChange();
}

Thanks @KevinPan.

I had something listening for selection and calling triggerChange() triggered the event for me. this.ui.select is my jQuery element for my select element. If statement checks the option exists.
