Items default to "selected"

[weevis]

None of my "option" have the selected attribute, but when I .multiselect() all options go into the "selected" side by default

Is there a way to prevent this?

It is hard to determine what is going here since you provide no use case to reproduce the problem. This widget has been around for over 4 years now and if it was a common issue, it would have been reported by now.

However, may I suggest you turn over to the version 2.0 of this widget, which is supported at the moment.

no use case? I have a select of options with nothing selected, and i use the multiselect on it and it makes them selected

as such:
12
$('.multiselect').multiselect();

I have gotten around this by forcing a click on the remove all element $('.remove-all').click();

Also, I didn't find version 2.0 via how I found this one on google, that's why I am not using it - otherwise works good.
