Here is what I want to do.

In the first row that has tds then `a = the text in the first cell` and `b = the selected value of the drop down that the user selected`

How do I do this as my code is not working?

```
$(document).ready(function () {
   var s = $('table td:first').parents('tr');

   var a = s.eq(0).text();
   var b = s.eq(1).find('option:selected').val();

   alert(a + "   " + b);
});

<table>
   <tbody>
      <tr>
         <th>ID</th>
       </tr>
       <tr>
          <td>
            test
           </td>
           <td>
             <select>
               <option value="yes">yes</option>
               <option selected="selected" value="no">no</option>
             </select>
           </td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

```
