Form containing select list always posts a value of 1 when used in firefox.

I have a form that uses this plugin to stylize a select list with numbers 1-8. In Chrome, Safari, and Internet Explorer when a user selects an item, the appropriate number is PATCHed to the server. However, every time a form is submitted while a user is using Firefox (Mac, Linux, and Windows) the value that gets submitted is a 1.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

I have a live example, but it takes a couple of steps to get to it:

You can log into my staged app using the following credentials:
username: coach@gmail.com
password: pas5word

The url to the registration page: http://lion.alexander.c66.me/users/sign_in

You can then navigate to: http://lion.alexander.c66.me/user_relations/3
Where you will see a "Skill List" toward the bottom of the page:

Select a value other than 1 in any of the three fields and select "update" . The page will refresh and you will see a value of 1 if you used Firefox (as mentioned before, all other browsers work as expected).

What's going on here?

It may be important to note that if I remove the jQuery Bar Rating plugin itself - the select lists load and work as expected (even in Firefox).

I found a bug report that was referring to problems with setting the "selected" attribute on a select list in Firefox/Windows 7.

Please clone/download the latest version of the plugin. I changed how the option is selected from using attributes to properties. Maybe it will help in your case.

Awesome, that fixed it.
