[jQuery] function text() in jquery


hello, Im kinda new in jquery so maybe its a begginer question.
I have a page with a div containing some text and a combobox.
something like that
<div id="testText">
hello this is text and this is combobox
<select><option value='1'>1</option><option value='2'>2</option><option
value='3'>3</option></select></div>
I wrote a function which return the text from the div.
alert($('#testText').text());
My problem is that the function also return the text inside the combobox.
is there a way to filter out the combobox text?
the only workaround I can think of is to wrap my text in another div and
call its text.
This workaround will be a bit complicated for me because the text on my page
is dynamic and it can come after the input field or before the input field
so I just want to get the text inside the div without the input fields
text... (This only happens with combobox).
tnx,
Kazuar
