alert('1');
$('[name=t_title]').val('Ms.'); //causes warning
//$('[name=t_title]').val(); // ( same if getting the value)
alert('2');
$('[name=t_title]').val('Sr.'); //change value, no warning
alert('3');
$('[name=t_title]').val('Ms.'); //repeat first line, no warning
//i.e. FIRST USE of val on a select gives warning
// (No difference whether setting or getting the value)
