[jQuery] Replicating <select> tag text
<html>
<body>
Hi folks,
I'd appreciate some help with a form element task I wish to
achieve.
I have a form containing three elements (2 text and 1 select).
[sNewNodeTitle]
[iNodeID] <--- select
[sLinkText]
For reasons that aren't important here, the user will either enter
something into sNewNodeTitle or select an existing item from the iNodeID
dropdown list. What I want to do is have either the entered text or
the text between the iNodeID select tags to be replicated into
sLinkText.
I've achieved the latter with
<tt>$('#sNewNodeTitle').keyup(function(){if(this.value.length>0)
$('#sLinkText').val(this.value);});
</tt>but I don't know how to get the required info from the select
element. I don't want the value of the selected select element (it
will be an integer) - I need the text.
Can someone please provide me with some direction here.
Thanks,
Bruce
