+The **`selectedIndex`** property of the {{DOMxRef("HTMLOptionsCollection")}} interface is the numeric index of the first selected {{HTMLElement("option")}} element, if any, or `−1` if no `<option>` is selected. Setting this property selects the option at that index and deselects all other options in this collection, while setting it to `-1` deselects any currently selected elements. It is exactly equivalent to the {{domxref("HTMLSelectElement.selectedIndex", "selectedIndex")}} property of the {{domxref("HTMLSelectElement")}} that owns this collection.
