使用 JavaScript 获取选定的选项文本

Question

I have a dropdown list like this:

<select id="box1">
<option value="98">dog</option>
<option value="7122">cat</option>
<option value="142">bird</option>
</select>

How can I get the actual option text rather than the value using JavaScript? I can get the value with something like:

<select id="box1" onChange="myNewFunction(this.selectedIndex);" >

But rather than 7122 I want cat .

Answer 1

Try options

 function myNewFunction(sel) { alert(sel.options[sel.selectedIndex].text); }

 <select id="box1" onChange="myNewFunction(this);"> <option value="98">dog</option> <option value="7122">cat</option> <option value="142">bird</option> </select>

Answer 2

Plain JavaScript

var sel = document.getElementById("box1");
var text= sel.options[sel.selectedIndex].text;

jQuery:

$("#box1 option:selected").text();

Answer 3

所有这些功能和随机的东西，我认为最好使用这个，并且这样做：

this.options[this.selectedIndex].text

Answer 4

There are two solutions, as far as I know.

both that just need using vanilla javascript

1 selectedOptions

live demo

 const log = console.log; const areaSelect = document.querySelector(`[id="area"]`); areaSelect.addEventListener(`change`, (e) => { // log(`e.target`, e.target); const select = e.target; const value = select.value; const desc = select.selectedOptions[0].text; log(`option desc`, desc); });

 <div class="select-box clearfix"> <label for="area">Area</label> <select id="area"> <option value="101">A1</option> <option value="102">B2</option> <option value="103">C3</option> </select> </div>

2 options

live demo

 const log = console.log; const areaSelect = document.querySelector(`[id="area"]`); areaSelect.addEventListener(`change`, (e) => { // log(`e.target`, e.target); const select = e.target; const value = select.value; const desc = select.options[select.selectedIndex].text; log(`option desc`, desc); });

 <div class="select-box clearfix"> <label for="area">Area</label> <select id="area"> <option value="101">A1</option> <option value="102">B2</option> <option value="103">C3</option> </select> </div>

Answer 5

HTML:

<select id="box1" onChange="myNewFunction(this);">

JavaScript:

function myNewFunction(element) {
    var text = element.options[element.selectedIndex].text;
    // ...
}

Answer 6

Use -

$.trim($("select").children("option:selected").text())   //cat

Here is the fiddle - http://jsfiddle.net/eEGr3/

Answer 7

To get it on React with Typescript:

  const handleSelectChange: React.ChangeEventHandler<HTMLSelectElement> = (event) => {
    const {  options, selectedIndex } = event.target;
    const text = options[selectedIndex].text;
    // Do something...
  };

Answer 8

Using vanilla JavaScript

onChange = { e => e.currentTarget.options[e.selectedIndex].text }

will give you exact value if values are inside a loop.

Answer 9

Using jquery.
In your event

  let selText = $("#box1 option:selected").text();
  console.log(selText);

Answer 10

You'll need to get the innerHTML of the option, and not its value.

Use this.innerHTML instead of this.selectedIndex .

Edit: You'll need to get the option element first and then use innerHTML.

Use this.text instead of this.selectedIndex .

 <select class="cS" onChange="fSel2(this.value);">
     <option value="0">S?lectionner</option>
     <option value="1">Un</option>
     <option value="2" selected>Deux</option>
     <option value="3">Trois</option>
 </select>

 <select id="iS1" onChange="fSel(options[this.selectedIndex].value);">
     <option value="0">S?lectionner</option>
     <option value="1">Un</option>
     <option value="2" selected>Deux</option>
     <option value="3">Trois</option>
 </select><br>

 <select id="iS2" onChange="fSel3(options[this.selectedIndex].text);">
     <option value="0">S?lectionner</option>
     <option value="1">Un</option>
     <option value="2" selected>Deux</option>
     <option value="3">Trois</option>
 </select>

 <select id="iS3" onChange="fSel3(options[this.selectedIndex].textContent);">
     <option value="0">S?lectionner</option>
     <option value="1">Un</option>
     <option value="2" selected>Deux</option>
     <option value="3">Trois</option>
 </select>

 <select id="iS4" onChange="fSel3(options[this.selectedIndex].label);">
     <option value="0">S?lectionner</option>
     <option value="1">Un</option>
     <option value="2" selected>Deux</option>
     <option value="3">Trois</option>
 </select>

 <select id="iS4" onChange="fSel3(options[this.selectedIndex].innerHTML);">
     <option value="0">S?lectionner</option>
     <option value="1">Un</option>
     <option value="2" selected>Deux</option>
     <option value="3">Trois</option>
 </select>

 <script type="text/javascript"> "use strict";
   const s=document.querySelector(".cS");

 // options[this.selectedIndex].value
 let fSel = (sIdx) => console.log(sIdx,
     s.options[sIdx].text, s.options[sIdx].textContent, s.options[sIdx].label);

 let fSel2= (sIdx) => { // this.value
     console.log(sIdx, s.options[sIdx].text,
         s.options[sIdx].textContent, s.options[sIdx].label);
 }

 // options[this.selectedIndex].text
 // options[this.selectedIndex].textContent
 // options[this.selectedIndex].label
 // options[this.selectedIndex].innerHTML
 let fSel3= (sIdx) => {
     console.log(sIdx);
 }
 </script> // fSel

But :

 <script type="text/javascript"> "use strict";
    const x=document.querySelector(".cS"),
          o=x.options, i=x.selectedIndex;
    console.log(o[i].value,
                o[i].text , o[i].textContent , o[i].label , o[i].innerHTML);
 </script> // .cS"

And also this :

 <select id="iSel" size="3">
     <option value="one">Un</option>
     <option value="two">Deux</option>
     <option value="three">Trois</option>
 </select>


 <script type="text/javascript"> "use strict";
    const i=document.getElementById("iSel");
    for(let k=0;k<i.length;k++) {
        if(k == i.selectedIndex) console.log("Selected ".repeat(3));
        console.log(`${Object.entries(i.options)[k][1].value}`+
                    ` => ` +
                    `${Object.entries(i.options)[k][1].innerHTML}`);
        console.log(Object.values(i.options)[k].value ,
                    " => ",
                    Object.values(i.options)[k].innerHTML);
        console.log("=".repeat(25));
    }
 </script>

Answer 12

You can get an array-like object that contains the selected item(s) with the method getSelected() method. like this:

querySelector('#box1').getSelected()

so you can extract the text with the .textContent attribute. like this:

querySelector('#box1').getSelected()[0].textContent 

If you have a multiple selection box you can loop through array-like object I hope it helps you😎👍
