[jQuery] Jorn Form Validation help - how to know when a select field is selected

[Web Specialist]

Hi all

I have a dependent validation routine with Jorn Validation Form plugin.
Works like a charm. But I need to validate dependent fields when a select
field option is "selected".

Looks like

                   wife:{required: function() {return
$("[EMAIL PROTECTED]'maried_single']").filter('[EMAIL PROTECTED]').val() == 
"1";}},

But doesn't work. How to get the selected field option?
