Well, you can put them in an array

var arr = $('option:selected').map(function(){ return $(this).text() }).get();
// arr[0] = 1
// arr[1] = 4
// arr[2] = 8

I suppose it's multi select.

Bear in mind that the attribute-equals selector won't match any options selected by the user following page-load.
it is simple : var selected=$( "#myselectId option:selected" ).text();
