I know if i have a select2 and i want to set one of the options, i can do run this code.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#btn').change(function(){
$('#select').val(4).trigger("change")
});
});
Lets say i want to get the text of the option
<option value=4>California</option>
but if i want to set it based on the text not the value, how do i do it?
I tried doing
$("#select").select2(data.text(), "California");
but it didnt work.
How can i do this programatically in jquery or javascript.
Any help is appreciated
