Angular custom directive with transclude not preserving the values of select box in IE8

[ajaijothi]

I have written a custom directive "collapsiblePanel" with transclude true. when I place a select box within the directive with some default value, the value is not preserved, instead it selects the default first option. The problem is only with IE8...but works fine with other browsers

Note: I'm using angularJS ver:1.2.20
IE8:

Modern Browser FF,Chrome

Can you provide a code reduction showing the issue with plnkr? Seems related to #7715, in that it's another browser's way of handling default selection.

Closing given that:

• we don't have live reproduce scenario
• fix(select) ... breaks some selects with required attributes on firefox. #7715 was fixed
• we don't support IE8 in 1.3.x
