With respect to selection staying at the last selected option, I've actually been thinking that it might make more sense to go back to the hint (if it's defined), and I'll probably implement it this way in the next version of the plugin. As for choosing the same option again with no effect -- which browser were you using? This works correctly in those browsers that report the onclick event on <option>s, namely Firefox and Opera. Normally, the plugin captures the onchange event, but in the case of clicking the currently selected option, no change is really taking place, so onchange doesn't get fired and it has to rely on onclick. Anyway, resetting the selection to the hint would resolve this issue too, so I guess it's another reason to implement it. @Riddle: Thanks for your feedback.

Found one bug, though: 1. Choose "Police Academy 2"<br /> 2. Delete "Police Academy 2" below<br /> 3. Selection stays at "PA 2". Should be "Select movies"<br /> 4. Choose "Police Academy 2" again<br /> 5. Bug: Nothing happens. I like it a lot, thanks for sharing.

Found one bug, though:

1. Choose “Police Academy 2″
2. Delete “Police Academy 2″ below
3. Selection stays at “PA 2″. Should be “Select movies”
4. Choose “Police Academy 2″ again
5. Bug: Nothing happens.
