[jquery] jQuery select2 get value of select tag?

Other answers wasn't working for me so i developed solution:

I created option with class="option-item" for easy targeting

HTML :

<select id="select-test">
<option value="5-val" id="first-id" class="option-item"> First option </option>
</select>

Then for every selected option i added display none property

CSS:

option:checked {
   display: none;
}

Now we can add change to our SelectBox to find our selected option with display none property by simple :hidden attribute

JQuery:

$('#select-test').change(function(){
//value 
    $('#select-test').find('.option-item:hidden').val();
//id
    $('#select-test').find('.option-item:hidden').attr('id');
//text
    $('#select-test').find('.option-item:hidden').text();
});
