This bug was posted earlier for the winXP version of Firefox1.0, but I have
found that the windows version WORKS and the OS X version DOES NOT.
When building a <select> form element with PHP's print() function, Firefox seems
to ignore the "selected" property within the subsequent <option> tags. It simply
defaults to the first <option> in the list.
I was not able to reproduce this error in the Win XP version of Firefox. IE also
displays the page correctly. It seems to be specific to the OS X version.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Execute the following PHP script:
<select name="mySelect">
<?php
print("<option value=\"somevalue\">value 1</option>");
print("<option value=\"othervalue\" selected>value 2</option>");
?>
</select>
Actual Results:
"value 1" will be selected on page load instead of "value 2"
Expected Results:
"value 2" should be selected as per the "selected" property in the second
<option> tag.

Could I suggest that you establish a scrupulously exact recipe (and include
a complete testcase) to be sure that you are not seeing a Dup of Bug 46845
"Form elements don't reset upon manually reloading page"?
Also check <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=257715">257715</a>
On mac os x 10.4.1, firefox 1.0.2, reproduce this bug by hitting reload with
this example web page:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="content-type">
<title>Test Selected on Reload</title>
</head>
<body>
<select>
<option>first</option>
<option selected>second</option>
<option>third</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>

1. Open Page => shows 'second'
2. Select 'first'
3. Reload shows 'second', subsequent reloads alternate between 'first' and
'second'
A shift reload takes up back to 'second' (as expected).
This behaviour is an exact match of Bug 294258 "Reload clears form values,
incorrectly", and this report is therefore a Dup of either that bug or
(more resaonably) Bug 46845 "Form elements don't reset upon manually
reloading page"
