Missing first option when using the <select multiple>

[kinocz]

Hi,
I'm not a JS/HTML guru, so I'm unsure how to describe the problem adequately...

Even when setting all options as selected, the first is missing from the tag list.

I have created an example that is as simple as possible to mimic the problem.

yes that's basically because typically the first option would be "please select..." something
if you don't provide a placeholder or something, it's going to take the first option as the placeholder

Ah ok...
