Why Does The Asp.net Dropdownlist Does Not Default To 0 If Chosen Jquery Is Used

I was using the Chosen Jquery which causes the dropdownlist to not update. This is the HTML:

Solution 1:

Try something like this:

<select name="ctl00$BodyPlaceHolder$ddl1" id="ddl1" class="chose-select le">
 <option value="" disabled selected>Select a State</option>
     <option value="Alabama">AL</option>
    <option value="Alaska">AK</option>
    <option value="Arizona">AZ</option>
</select>

Solution 2:

just add data-placeholder="Choose a State" to be like that

<select name="ctl00$BodyPlaceHolder$ddl1" id="ddl1" data-placeholder="Choose a State" class="chose-select le">
    <option value="Alabama">AL</option>
    <option value="Alaska">AK</option>
    <option value="Arizona">AZ</option>
</select>

Solution 3:

I had to remove the .val(0) and it worked fine.

$(ddl1).trigger('chosen:updated');
