I have the following select:
<select class="form-control"
onchange="User_Changed_Language()"
id="HeaderLanguageSelection"
style="cursor:pointer;width:100%;height:30px;margin:0;padding:0"
title="{{Labels.Change_Language_Tooltip}}">
<option ng-repeat="One_Language in Languages_List"
value="{{One_Language.Code}}"
ng-selected="One_Language.Code == current_Language">
{{One_Language.Name}}
</option>
</select>
Now, current_Language is a $rootScope variable with a value (e.g. "EN"). I want the select element to display the selected value instead of the very first. What am I doing wrong?
One more note: I know that I could use ng-click, but I don't think this is the source of the issue.
Thanks.
Check this snippet:
var app = angular.module('app', []);
app.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope, $rootScope) {
$scope.Labels = {Change_Language_Tooltip: "change lang"};
$scope.Languages_List = [
{ name: 'English', Code: 'en' },
{ name: 'Espanol', Code: 'es' },
{ name: 'Italian', Code: 'it' }];
$rootScope.current_Language = $scope.Languages_List[1];
});

PS: the selected item (default or initial) must be one element of the items used in the ngOptions list
