"empty: true" still strips out empty attributes on option tags about minimize HOT 2 CLOSED

Just tested and it seems to work fine, in this specific case you probably need new Minimize({ empty: true, spare: true });. empty will make sure the value attribute is added , e.g. <option value> and spare will add "" making sure the value attribute keeps it empty value <option value="">. Having just empty: true might cause the browser to optimize the attribute away, cause normally value is not a boolean attribute.

To make sure this is not some edge case bug, what version of minimize are you working with and what browser are you working on?

from minimize.

Adding spare: true like you suggested worked for me.

I'm using chrome, minimize 1.4.1.

My html is actually using angularjs:

<select  ng-model="item">
    <option value="">Select something</option>
    <option ng-repeat="i in items" ng-selected ="item == i.name>{{ i.name }}<option>
</select>

from minimize.
