Q:

YUI getting selected value from drop down list

How can I get selected value from a drop down list using YUI.
Thanks.

A:

If you're talking about something like the combobox found here: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/autocomplete/ac_combobox.html
You can get the value from the element's value property.  e.g. 
document.getElementById("text_box_id").value

To see this in action, go to the above link, select a value for the first input box, then past the below code into your browser's address bar:
javascript:alert(document.getElementById("bInput").value);
