The drop-down is used to create a list of items that need to select an element. We use <select> and <option> elements to create a drop-down list and use disabled attribute in <select> element to disable the drop-down list element.

A hidden attribute on an <option> tag hides the option. Although the option is not visible, its position on the page is maintained.

You have to implement two methods for hiding. display: none works for FF, but not Chrome or IE. So the second method is wrapping the <option> in a <span> with display: none . FF won't do it (technically invalid HTML, per the spec) but Chrome and IE will and it will hide the option.
