How to keep the industry values(| Insurance | Analytics | EIS and Process Engineering ) as selected?
EDIT:
Window.onDomReady(function(){
user-get('industry');
$s=explode('|', $str)
?
var selectedFields = new Array();
<?php for($i=1;$i<count($s);$i++){?>
selectedFields.push("<?php echo $s[$i];?>");
<?php }?>
for(i=1;i<selectedFields.length;i++)
{
var select=selectedFields[i];
for (var ii = 0; ii < document.getElementById('ind1').length; ii++) {
var value=document.getElementById('ind1').options[ii].value;
alert(value);
alert(select);
if(value==select)
{
document.getElementById('ind1').options[ii].selected=selected;
}//If
} //inner For
}//outer For
</script>
i have tried the above the alert functions are working correctly.
But the if loop didnt works correctly ..
