[jQuery] Getting Selectbox selected value. Works in IE not FF.

[jQuery] Getting Selectbox selected value. Works in IE not FF.

This is all that's needed:
$('#mySelect').val()
If you wanted the text value of the selected option rather than it's
value attribute, you could do:
$('#mySelect :selected').text()

Subject: [jQuery] Getting Selectbox selected value. Works in IE not FF.
Guys,
I'm tesing some code out to return the selected value of a dropdown. I
found a snippet that was posted in a prior message but it seems to only
work in IE and not in FF. FF returns null for the value. The code
snippet is:
$('#mySelect option[@selected]').val();
You can see it here:

Any ideas on how to fix this?
Rey...
