***********************
text Property
This property, by default tainted, reflects the text value following any
particular HTML OPTION tag for a Select object. It can be reset at any
time, immediately updating the display of the selection.
Syntax: object.text
***********************
So to output the text of the selected option, you might do something
like:
document.write(document.formname.selectname[document.formname.selectname
.selectedIndex].text);
I'm pretty sure that would be correct usage.(?)
