[jQuery] Getting the optgroup for a select option

I'd like to be able to display the optgroup label attribute value after a select list is changed. This is what I have so far, but I think I'm heading down the wrong track, because a) I want the optgroup label value, not the selected option value and b) I don't want to keep appending if the user ch

Re: [jQuery] How to not select something?

[jQuery] How to not select something?

should be, but it doesn't have the desired effect: $(document).ready(function() { if (!$("#save-search div.error-message")) $("#save-search").hide(); }); Would it be possible to let me know not just how to get this to work, but also where I'm going wrong? In search o

[jQuery] Hide div only if no child checkbox is selected

uot;' attribute. All I've managed to do so far is to hide/not hide the checkboxes that are checked - not quite the result I was hoping for :) Is this the sort of selection that JQuery can handle easily, or do I have to write a function? Many thanks ~GreyCells (now subscribed) --
