Example 3: how to get the selected text of dropdown in jquery

BY LOVE
$("#Id option:selected").text()

Example 4: get selected option text jquery

I think this should be $("#yourdropdownid").children("option").filter(":selected").text() since is() returns a boolean of whether the object matches the selector or not.
