If there are duplicate options, only the first one can be selected.

Say you have a dropdown like this:

<select>
      <option value="1">first</option>
      <option value="2">second</option>
      <option value="3">first</option>
      <option value="4">second</option>
</select>

There is no way to select "first" with value "3". The onblur event loops over the options looking for a string match. Instead, each item in the <ul> should store its own index within the full list, and that should be used in the onblur.

I haven't tested it, but I suspect you would get a similar issue with this:

<select>
      <option value="1">first</option>
      <option value="2">first   </option>
      <option value="3">first      </option>
</select>
