I have a dropdown like so:
<select id="dropdownList">
<option val="1">Item One</option>
<option val="2">Item Two</option>
<option val="3">Item Three</option>
</select>
When I use $(‘#dropdownList’).val(), the value returned is “Item One/Two/Three” rather than the actual option value (1/2/3), which is what I need. I’m not sure if I should be using something other than .val()? I apologize if this has been answered somewhere, but my Google-fu is failing me on this one.
Change your html to the valid
value=instead ofval=
