When i refresh a page with a select box the wrong item is selected (i.e. not the one with 'selected="selected"', after playing around a bit I foudn it has something to do with having option tags with identical values. I've included a proof of concept below. 

Load the page and "select a quick link" is selected, on refesh the bottom most item is selected.
