jQuery Get Selected Option From Dropdown

Question

Usually I use $(\"#id\").val() to return the value of the selected option, but this time it doesn\'t work. The selected tag has the id aioConceptName

Answer 1

I had the same issue and I figured out why it was not working on my case
The html page was divided into different html fragments and I found that I have another input field that carries the same Id of the select, which caused the val() to be always empty
I hope this saves the day for anyone who have similar issue.
