jquery check specific options in a multiselect - php

Question

Alright I have a multiselect like this :
<select id="filtreMultiselectModif" name="groupes[]" multiple="multiple">
<script>
$('#filtreMultiselectModif').multiselect(
{
includeSelectAllOption: true,
enableFiltering: true,
maxHeight: 200
});
</script>
which give me that :
What I would like to do is to set checked some specific items that I store in a PHP table.
Here's my jquery code (that didn't work)
<script>
$(document).ready(function ()
{
var arrayFromPHP = <?php echo json_encode($tableauIntitule); ?>;
$('#filtreMultiselectModif').multiselect(
{
includeSelectAllOption: true,
enableFiltering: true,
maxHeight: 200
});
$('#filtreMultiselectModif option').each(function(i,option)
{
$.each(arrayFromPHP,function(index,groupe){
if ($(option).text() === groupe)
{
alert (option.text);
$(this).attr('checked', 'checked');
}
});
});
});
Basicly I want every item stored in arrayFromPHP to be checked in the dropdown list but it doesn't seem to work..
Here's the code for my PHP array just in case :
<?php
$tableauIntitule = [];
$i = 0;
while ($data3 = mysqli_fetch_array($req3)) { // Remplissage du SELECT
$intitule = $data3['intitule'];
$tableauIntitule[$i] = $intitule;
}
?>

First of all - your question is regarding bootstrap-multiselect (and not jquery-multiselect).
You can use the multiselect('select', VALUES) in order to set the selected values.
Here is an example:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#s1').multiselect();
$('#s1').multiselect('select', ['a', 'c', '2']);
});
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.3/jquery.min.js"></script>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-multiselect/0.9.13/css/bootstrap-multiselect.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-multiselect/0.9.13/js/bootstrap-multiselect.min.js"></script>
<select id="s1" multiple="multiple">
<option value="a">Option A</option>
<option value="b">Option B</option>
<option value="c">Option C</option>
<option value="1">Option 1</option>
<option value="2">Option 2</option>
<option value="3">Option 3</option>
</select>
In your case, if arrayFromPHP is an array (ie arrayFromPHP = ['v1', 'v2', 'v3']) you can do multiselect('select', arrayFromPHP).
One important thing to remember - the data in the array should be the values and not the options data (<option value="VAL">OPTION</option>).
