if title/placeholder enabled, select value changes when pressing back in browser

[Khrysller]

Just found an issue with the last master, v1.7.0.

How to replicate: Create a form with some selectboxes, submit the form, press back in the browser to go back to the form. the selectbox highlight the next option instead the option selected.

any thoughts on this? thanks

Any chance you can link me to an example?

[Khrysller]

@caseyjhol any webpage with a select submiting to another page (or even maybe to the same page), when press back in the browser will select the previous options +1

[caseyjhol]

It's possible the most recent commit (c09f46c) fixed this. Can you give it a try now?

[Khrysller]

Thanks, you give this a test, tomorrow in the office.

Ok now it is acting even weird:

• I have a select without the multiple option. But when I check the option, the selected text option do not shows in the select when closed. But it submits.
• Now if I press back in the browser the selects are reseted.

Can you include some screenshots? I can't recreate this on my end (Windows 8.1, Chrome 43).

I was testing on W7 with IE9. Gonna generate a reduced test case and run it with chrome, ie and firefox on W7

[Khrysller]

This is still happening in the last dist. I am using W7 and IE9 or last Chrome. How to reproduce:

• Have a page with some selects
• Submit a form
• Press back in browser
• The values in the selects get reseted even in the selects with 'selected' pre-defined

@Khrysller did you solve this problem? I have page with a lot of modal windows, every modal is a form with selectbox. After submitting and press back, html code of is correct. But plugin dont work right.

[Khrysller]

I am closing this for now. Thanks.

If it is indeed the same bug: here is a public site where the issue is easily reproducible: https://index.scala-lang.org/akka/akka/akka-actor

The relevant select is on the right-hand side:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Got to https://index.scala-lang.org/akka/akka/akka-actor
2. Choose "akka-camel" from the selection box.
3. Note that Statistics, Dependencies, and Dependents sections change (right-hand side)
4. Press Back in the browser
5. Notice that Statistics, Dependencies, and Dependents change back but the selection box still says "akka-camel."

I was using Firefox for when confirming the above.

I'm able to recreate this, specifically for standard select elements that have the title (placeholder) attribute set. My recreation is more similar to the one described in #1296. The placeholder option is added to the select and automatically selected instead of the default selected value.

Released in v1.13.17!
