Hello,

I was wondering if someone could tell me how to create a variable that pulls the value from a select form element.

Thanks,
Katrina

<select id="fruit" name="fruit">
  <option value="a">Apples</option>
  <option value="o">Oranges</option>
</select>

var fruit = document.getElementById("fruit").value;
