Can't get Select box value in IE using JavaScript
<p>I'm trying to get the value of a select box using JavaScript. This works in Firefox, Chrome and IE9 but not IE6,7,8. It works if i use jQuery's <code>val()</code>, but i'm trying to get the value using vanilla JavaScript. Why is this not working'.</p>

<pre><code>$('#get').click(function() {
    var x = document.getElementById('bbb').value;//works if i do $('#bbb').val()
    alert(x)
})
</code></pre>
