<cfparam name="form.location" default="">
...
<select name="location" id="location" onchange="this.form.submit();">
  <cfloop query="qlocations">
  <option value="#id#"<cfif form.location eq 5> selected="selected"</cfif>>#location#</option>
  </cfloop>
</select>

Your query loop cannot properly select the selected value because (if you look at the source code) you are comparing it so that EVERY option will be "selected" (if #id# = #id#.. everything equals itself.)
