从下拉框获取文本

Does this get the correct answer?

document.getElementById("newSkill").innerHTML

document.getElementById('newSkill').options[document.getElementById('newSkill').selectedIndex].value

Should work

This should return the text value of the selected value

var vSkill = document.getElementById('newSkill');


var vSkillText = vSkill.options[vSkill.selectedIndex].innerHTML;


alert(vSkillText);

Edit: DownModed, cause I actually read a question fully, and answered it, sad world it is.

Based on your example HTML code, here's one way to get the displayed text of the currently selected option:

var skillsSelect = document.getElementById("newSkill");
var selectedText = skillsSelect.options[skillsSelect.selectedIndex].text;

This works i tried it my self i thought i post it here in case someone need it...

document.getElementById("newSkill").options[document.getElementById('newSkill').selectedIndex].text;

    var ele = document.getElementById('newSkill')
ele.onchange = function(){
var length = ele.children.length
for(var i=0; i<length;i++){
if(ele.children[i].selected){alert(ele.children[i].text)};
}
}

Attaches a change event to the select that gets the text for each selected option and writes them in the div.

You can use jQuery it very face and successful and easy to use

<select name="sweets" multiple="multiple">
<option>Chocolate</option>
<option>Candy</option>
<option>Taffy</option>
<option selected="selected">Caramel</option>
<option>Fudge</option>
<option>Cookie</option>
</select>
<div></div>




$("select").change(function () {
var str = "";


$("select option:selected").each(function() {
str += $( this ).text() + " ";
});


$( "div" ).text( str );
}).change();

var selectoption = document.getElementById("dropdown");
var optionText = selectoption.options[selectoption.selectedIndex].text;

Please try the below this is the easiest way and it works perfectly

var newSkill_Text = document.getElementById("newSkill")[document.getElementById("newSkill").selectedIndex];

Simply You can use jQuery instead of JavaScript

$("#yourdropdownid option:selected").text();

Try This.

function getValue(obj)
{
// it will return the selected text
// obj variable will contain the object of check box
var text = obj.options[obj.selectedIndex].innerHTML ;


}

HTML Snippet

 <asp:DropDownList ID="ddl" runat="server" CssClass="ComboXXX"
onchange="getValue(this)">
</asp:DropDownList>

Here is an easy and short method

document.getElementById('elementID').selectedOptions[0].innerHTML

Found this a tricky question but using ideas from here I eventually got the solution using PHP & Mysqli to populate the list : and then a bit of javascript to get the working variable out.

        <select  id="mfrbtn" onchange="changemfr()" >
<option selected="selected">Choose one</option>
<?php
foreach($rows as $row)
{
echo '<option   value=implode($rows)>'.$row["Mfrname"].'</option>';
}
?>
</select>

Then :

<script language="JavaScript">
    

function changemfr()
{
var $mfr2=document.getElementById("mfrbtn").selectedOptions[0].text;
alert($mfr2);
}
</script>
