title: Iterate through <select> options
body: <p>I have a <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> element in HTML. This element represents a drop down list. I'm trying to understand how to iterate through the options in the <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> element via JQuery.</p>
  
  <p>How do I use JQuery to display the value and text of each option in a <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> element? I just want to display them in an <code>alert()</code> box.</p>
