Hi, Can anyone help with the following? With JQuery, I can't successfully grab the selected value from a drop-down. The alert just shows an empty message. At least it is not showing undefined (as it was for my other attempts - you can see what these were from the commented out code), but I would expect it to display one of the values One-way, Reciprocal or Other. Perhaps I have to do some conversion on the result. Your contributions to this post will be greatly appreciated.
In my HTML I have: <select name="dllViewSelector" onchange="showSelectedView(this, allViews, allSections,4,10)"> <option id="oneway_4" value="one" selected="selected">One- way</option> <option id="recip_4" value="two">Reciprocal</option> <option id="other_4" value="three">Other</option> </select> . . . <span id="Add_0" class="actionOptAdd"> <input type="button" name="btnOk_AddToProject_0" class="button-click-grey" value="Add to Project" /></span> . . . And in my JQuery I have .... $(".actionOptAdd").bind("click", function() { p_viewSelector=$("#dllViewSelector option:selected").text(); alert(p_viewSelector); // Also get blank message for: // p_viewSelector=$("#dllViewSelector option:selected",this).text (); // (Also tried - getting undefined as a result) // p_viewSelector=$("#dllViewSelector").selectedIndex; // p_viewSelector=$("#dllViewSelector").attr("selectedIndex");
