[Select Tag] setting option text

I am creating a select for options like:

- 25 miles
- 50 miles
- 75 miles
- 100 miles

The miles part, i don’t want, i just want the value..

i am currently setting list: for an array of the above values..

i get:

<select id="selectDistance" class="form-control" name="2”>
<option value="1">25 Miles</option>
<option value="2">50 Miles</option>
<option value="3">75 Miles</option>
<option value="4">100 Miles</option>
</select>

i am wondering if i could do something that would allow me to set the value
and the text..

so the value would be 25 or 50, etc..
and the text in the option would be 25 miles, 50 miles, etc..

so i would  get:

<select id="selectDistance" class="form-control" name="2”>
<option value=“25">25 Miles</option>
<option value=“50">50 Miles</option>
<option value=“75">75 Miles</option>
<option value=“75">100 Miles</option>
</select>

so setting the selected: 50 would mark the appropriate option as selected.

Thanks!

Thanks!
