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

You can select using exact selected option : Below will give innerText

$("select#aioConceptName > option:selected").text()

While below will give you value.

$("select#aioConceptName > option:selected").val()
