Select label

[mares]

Hi,

I would like to use the label of the selected option in select object?

If i use "optionName.innerText":
<select name="optionName" onchange="alert(optionName.innerText)">
<option value="1" SELECTED>Option 1</option>
<option value="2">Option 2</option>
</select>

The alert returns "Option 1 Option 2".

But i need only the label of the selected item (ie "Option 1").

Thank you!

<select name="optionName" onchange="alert(options[selectedIndex].text)">
<option value="1" SELECTED>Option 1</option>
<option value="2">Option 2</option>
</select>

Not really a 'label', mares....;)
