I am trying to get a default value set for a "Select" element, like this:

$f = new HTML_QuickForm("request", "post", "", "_self", NULL,TRUE);
$f_priority = array ("Very low","Low","Normal","High","Very High");
$priority_element =& $f->addElement("select", "request_priority",
"Priority:", $f_priority);
$priority_element->setSelected("2");
....

But the html which is generated from this looks like this:

....
<option value="1">Low</option>
<option value="2" selected="selected">Normal</option>
<option value="3">High</option
....

To my understanding, it should only say "selected", not "selected="selected"

Is there some workaround, am I doing something wrong, or does one need
to hack QuickForm for this?

The valid XHTML syntax is <option selected="selected"

no it doesn't. In the example I posted, the rendered default
selected option is "very low" when it should be "normal".

Indeed. My browser was stuck in nevernever land, and after it reset
it seems to have worked.
