Question

I have a select control that looks like this:

<select name="MyName" id="MyID">
  <option value ="1">1 day</option>
  <option value ="2">2 days</option>
  <option value ="3">3 days</option>
  <option value ="4">4 days</option>
<select>

I’m looking to get the text of the option based on the value. For instance, if I input 2, it should return “2 days”.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Answer 1

 alert($('option[value=2]', $('#MyID')).html());
