Jquery append not giving correct optgroup












0














I have the following jquery append which should wrap an optgroup label around each year. However, my output is not reflecting this. Is there a better way to add this to my select?



if (year) {
if ($('option[value="' + year.titleid + '"]').length == 0) {
$(titleselect).append('<optgroup label="' + year.category + '">');
$(titleselect).append($('<option>', {
value: year.titleid,
text: year.name
}));
}
}


Output:



<optgroup label="Tailoring"></optgroup>
<option value="27472">Suits</option>

    If the option should be a child of the optgroup, you just have to change your logic to do that. You are appending to the titleselect both times
