I would love to be able to select those above a threshold, such as something like: $("#mySelect option[value>5]") I know I can do this with :gt(index) but I'd rather use the actual value for less hard coding and better readability. I think this would great in other areas too. I'm sure there are lots of issues with this since the value is really just text, but a straight string comparison would probably do. Anyway, just my vote. Let me know if there is a better place to suggest this. Thanks, Matt Penner
