edit the first option name

Question

I have the following code which I do not have access to.

What I want to do is add some text into the first option which is now empty. Text such as \"Select Address\

Answer 1

$('select[name=My_Saved_Billing] > option:first-child')
    .text('Select Address');

If you want to find the empty option(s), not just the first one, use:

$('select[name=My_Saved_Billing] > option:empty')
// or
$('select[name=My_Saved_Billing] > option:empty:first')

To get the option with specific content, use:

$('select[name=My_Saved_Billing] > option:contains(texthere)')
