I am attempting to retrieve and set the selected value of a select element (drop down list) with jQuery.
for retrievel i have tried $(\"#myId\").find(\':select
$(\"#myId\").find(\':select
Suppose you have created a Drop Down list using SELECT tag like as follows,
Now if you want to see what is the selected value from drop down using JQuery then, simply put following line to retrieve that value..
var result= $("#Country option:selected").text();
it will work fine.
