Bootstrap-select: How do I get the select value?

[spyhunter88]

I use for an select tag with class='selectpicker' and id="select1",

then $('.selectpicker').selectpicker();

When I select an option, the source element (that hidden) does not set "selected" to relate option, so I dont know how to get the value/text of selected item.

try jQuery val()

I tried but value is "undefined". See here: http://jsfiddle.net/spyhunter88/dxJkX/

Sorry, I made dummy mistake in id with dot ('.'), Thanks.
