javascript - How select the previous option with jQuery?

I have a html page with a select element like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
  <title>JS Bin</title>
</head>
<body>
<select id="ExSelect">
  <option>1</option>
  <option>2</option>
  <option>3</option>
  <option>4</option>
  <option>5</option>
  <option>6</option>
  <option>7</option>
  <option>8</option>
  <option>9</option>
  <option>10</option>
 </select>
  <br>
  <br>
<script src=".1.0.js"></script>
  <button onclick="ToTheNext()" id="btnext">Next</button>
</body>
</html>

And I'm using this simple function on the button OnClick to change the selected item to the next option item of the dropdown:

function ToTheNext()
{
    $('#ExSelect option:selected').next().attr('selected', 'selected');
}

My question is: How can i change the selected item to the previous option of this tag using Vanilla JavaScript or jQuery?

5 just use prev() instead of next() – Toni Michel Caubet Commented Sep 29, 2017 at 12:54
1 Like @ToniMichelCaubet said, just use prev() instead of next() – Nicholas Commented Sep 29, 2017 at 12:58
2 and .prop('selected', true) instead of .attr('selected', 'selected'); – Pv-Viana Commented Sep 29, 2017 at 12:58

Two problems - first by using attr you're setting more than one option to selected, which is probably not what you want to do as it will stop the prev() from working as you expect.

Change your code like this:

function ToTheNext()
{
    $('#ExSelect option:selected').next().prop('selected', true);
}

function ToThePrevious()
{
    $('#ExSelect option:selected').prev().prop('selected', true);
}

If you're using jQuery then stop using onclick attributes and instead assign click handlers appropriately

$('#btnext').on('click', function(){
    $('#ExSelect option:selected').next().prop('selected', true);
});

$(function(){

  $('#btnext').on('click',function(){
    $('#ExSelect option:selected').next().prop('selected', true);
  });

  $('#btprev').on('click',function(){
    $('#ExSelect option:selected').prev().prop('selected', true);
  });

});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis./ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="ExSelect">
  <option>1</option>
  <option>2</option>
  <option>3</option>
  <option>4</option>
  <option>5</option>
  <option>6</option>
  <option>7</option>
  <option>8</option>
  <option>9</option>
  <option>10</option>
 </select>
  <br>
  <br>
  <button id="btnext">Next</button>
  <button id="btprev">Prev</button>

Replace the .attr('selected', 'selected'); with .prop('selected', true);

next() with prev()

and add the jQuery script under the button.

const select = $('#ExSelect');

function next()
{
   select.find('option:selected').next().prop('selected', true);
}

function prev()
{
  select.find('option:selected').prev().prop('selected', true);
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis./ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="ExSelect">
  <option>1</option>
  <option>2</option>
  <option>3</option>
  <option>4</option>
  <option>5</option>
  <option>6</option>
  <option>7</option>
  <option>8</option>
  <option>9</option>
  <option>10</option>
</select>
<button onclick="next()" id="btnext">Next</button>
<button onclick="prev()" id="btprev">Prev</button>

Use $('#ExSelect option:selected').prev().prop('selected', true);

In order to plete the answer. If you want to trigger something with the new selected option, you must add .change() at the end of your functions :

function ToTheNext(){
    $('#ExSelectoption:selected').next().prop('selected', true).change();
}

function ToThePrevious(){
    $('#ExSelectoption:selected').prev().prop('selected', true).change();
}
