I'm using elementtree to create a form.

I would like to set the "selected" attribute.

Setting using the usual
option.set( "selected" = "" )
gives me
<option selected="" value="operations">Operations</option>
how does one make
<option selected value="operations">Operations</option>
which is what I need.

Maybe that should be option.set(selected="selected"). I think

<option selected="selected">

and

<option selected>

are equivalent.
