Value of Select Option

[Erindesign]

Hey all,

I'm having two Slecet Option inputs. When both are chosen i want to compare the two make sure they ar ethe same. Its for confirmation purposes.

How would i get the value of a selected option. (I don't know which option is chosen, I don't know the id of the option, i dont know the value of the option. I just now the id n name of the select)

<select name="whatever">
{Loop here to output many options}
</select>

You can always use...

var sel1 = document.getElementById('select1');
var sel2 = document.getElementById('select2');
var selopt1 = sel1.selectedIndex; // get which option is currently selected.
var selopt2 = sel2.selectedIndex;
var selopt1val = sel1.options[selopt1].value; // get the value of the selected option.
var selopt1val = sel2.options[selopt2].value;

I'm sure you can figure out how that works. Hope it helps.
