Populate dropdown select with array using jQuery

Question

I am trying to populate a dropdown select with an array using jQuery.

Here is my code:

        // Add the list of numbers to the drop down here
              


        

Answer 1

Try for loops:

var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

for (var i=0;i').val(numbers[i]).html(numbers[i]).appendTo('#items');
}

Much better approach:

var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
var option = '';
for (var i=0;i' + numbers[i] + '';
}
$('#items').append(option);
