Option
Updated: 04/09/2024 by Computer Hope
An option may refer to any of the following:
1. An option is a choice presented to a user. For example, when closing a program, you may be prompted to save any open files with unsaved changes. Clicking "Yes" saves the file and closes the program; clicking "No" closes the program without saving the files, and your changes are discarded. When dealing with a lot of options, the user often navigates the available options through an options menu.
2. With HTML (hypertext markup language), the <option> tag designates a list item in the <optgroup>, <datalist>, or <select> elements.
3. Option is a short way of saying Option key.
