Hi,
You need to provide complete (hopefully tiny) case, so others can reproduce your issue.

 Subject: [Htmlunit-user] HtmlSelect doesnt trigger the events
   
Hi there, 
I am building a spider for a web site that has two combo boxes, the first one populates the second one. 
this it is done with a java script:

  $('#gender').change(function () {
            if ($('#gender').val() == 'Female') {
                marital_options = '';                var selected = '';                $.each(marital_status_female, function (index, value) {                    if (value == 1) {                        selected = 'selected="selected"';                    } else {                        selected = '';                    }                    marital_options += '<option ' + selected + ' value="' + index + '">' + value + '</option>';                });                $('#marital_status').html('<select class="form-control" id="marital_status" name="marital_status">' + marital_options + '</select>');

this is my code 

 try (final WebClient webClient = new WebClient(BrowserVersion.getDefault())) {
 webClient.setJavaScriptTimeout(5000); webClient.getOptions().setThrowExceptionOnScriptError(true); webClient.getOptions().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); webClient.waitForBackgroundJavaScript(30000);  webClient.getOptions().setUseInsecureSSL(true);
...
final HtmlSelect gender = page.getFirstByXPath("//*[@id=\"gender\"]"); gender.setSelectedAttribute(gender.getOptionByValue("Male"),Boolean.TRUE);
 final HtmlSelect marital_status = page.getFirstByXPath("//*[@id=\"marital_status\"]");
marital_status.getOptions(); // this is EMPTY 



Any clue how to make it works ? 



thank you in advance ! JP_Listero
