title: Jquery - Setting a select list option by id
body: <p>I feel like this should not be this complicated, but I'm sure I'm missing something trivial.
  Thanks for anyone that can help!</p>
  
  <p>XSL:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;select id="mySelectList"&gt;
    &lt;option id="1" description="Blue" /&gt;
    &lt;option id="2" description="Black" /&gt;
    &lt;option id="3" description="Green" /&gt;
  &lt;/select&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>JS:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$("#mySelectList option[id='1']").attr("selected", "selected");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>EDIT:  Fixed my select per Nick's response.</p>
