When I set document.form.<select list name>.value = ''; the value remains unchanged. Actual results: The value remains unchanged. Expected results: The select list value had to set to blank.
OS: Unspecified → Windows 7
Hardware: Unspecified → x86_64
Summary: select list selected value do not change when set to black → select list selected value do not change when set to blank
From the spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/forms.html#the-select-element "On setting, the value attribute must set the selectedness of all the option elements in the list of options to false, and then the first option element in the list of options, in tree order, whose value is equal to the given new value, if any, must have its selectedness set to true and its dirtiness set to true."

Presumably a duplicate of bug 1203668 but hard to tell for sure without an actual testcase.
