HTML <option> Tag
<select name="Food">
<option value ="apples">Apples</option>
<option value ="bananas">Bananas</option>
<option value ="oranges">Oranges</option>
</select>
The above example demonstrates usage of the <option>
element.
The <option>
element typically represents an option in a <select>
list. It can also represent the list of options/suggestions when using the <datalist>
element.
The value
attribute can be used for form submission purposes (i.e. so that any script that processes it can use this value).
You can also use the label
attribute to provide a user-visible label, the selected
attribute to select a default option, and the disabled
attribute to disable an option.
Also see the <optgroup>
for grouping <option>
elements into logical groups.
