      function CloseDiv() {
            var control = document.getElementById("divReqStages");
            control.style.visibility = "hidden";
 
                  var control1 = document.getElementById('DDLReqStages').selectedIndex;
 
      control1.value='0';
 
        }
      function CloseDiv() {
            var control = document.getElementById("divReqStages");
            control.style.visibility = "hidden";
            
                  var control1 = document.getElementById('DDLReqStages').selectedIndex;

Re: Setting default value through javascript

The above will select the first OPTION in the SELECT list. IF you want NO option selected, then use -1 instead of zero

I don't understand what you are describing. IF you have a link to a test page or a copy of your code, it might make help.
