hello all —
i am trying to insert a new item and draw attention to it. in addition, i want to make sure my “Placeholder” stays visible initially. note that a user may see a selected item and not know what it is, hence the need to keep Placeholder intact initially.
my solution was(is) to wait until the drop-down is opened before using jScript to select it:

and Svetoslav has kindly demonstrated how to bold a new item:

its tempting to use both methods to draw extra attention to a particular item, but either solution appears valid.
any other opinions?
.
