select2 changing items dynamically

Question

I have two selects that are linked: Each value of the first select determines which items will be displayed in the second select.

The values of the second select are

Answer 1

In my project I use following code:

$('#attribute').select2();
$('#attribute').bind('change', function(){
    var $options = $();
    for (var i in data) {
        $options = $options.add(
            $('').attr('value', data[i].id).html(data[i].text)
        );
    }
    $('#value').html($options).trigger('change');
});

Try to comment out the select2 part. The rest of the code will still work.
