Hi, the syntax you need for selecting by ID is this:
$("#identifier")
so to find the element with ID 'aller' you want:
$("#aller")
Bear in mind that the $() function does not return a DOM object, it returns
a jQuery object.
If you want to access a DOM property such as selectedIndex, you will need to
retrieve the DOM object like this:
alert($("#aller")[0].selectedIndex);
Remember also that that line will generate an error if there is no element
found with ID 'aller'.
I hope that explains it for you :-)

Hi,
I am trying to access my SELECT element with jQuery but I can't make it
working :
This works :
alert(document.getElementById('aller')); // [object]
var sel = document.getElementById('aller');
alert(sel.selectedIndex); // 0
This not working :
alert($(document.aller)); // [object Object]
alert($(document.aller).selectedIndex); // undefined
Could anyone help me ?
Thank u for any comment.
