Alternative to .change in jquery?
<p>I'm trying to fire an ajax event, and passing the value of select list options as arguments in the ajax call. Unfortunately, I'm firing the call on the .change event, and it is passing the values of the select option before the new option has been selected (i.e passing the previously selected options values). Is there an event which will get the current values of the option selected? Much thanks in advance,</p>

<pre><code>&lt;select id='theList'&gt;
   &lt;option&gt; Option 1&lt;/option&gt;
   &lt;option&gt; Option 2&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;/select&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>In the JS:</p>

<pre><code>$('#theList').change( function() {
$.getJSON('Home/MethodName', { var1: Option1Value, var2: MiscValue}, function(data) {
      //Execute instructions here
}
)});
</code></pre>

<p>I wanted to use .trigger, but I think that fires beforehand as well. </p>
