document.formName.selectName.options.value


to access an option being selected use this:
document.formName.selectName.selectedIndex

to get number of options in <select> use this:
document.formName.selectName.options.length

 

[starway]

document.formName.selectName.options[n].text

and

document.formName.selectName.options[n].value


to access an option being selected use this:
document.formName.selectName.selectedIndex

to get number of options in <select> use this:
document.formName.selectName.options.length

I have tried that

Here was the syntax I used

variable = document.form.selectbox.options[x]

but when i go to write the variable all that is displayed is object.

variable.value
