User Control's dropdownlist select from added page with javascript

Question

i want user control's dropdownlist selected item from page. when i try to get dropdownlist id it doesn't return correct id. Have you any idea about what i can get dropdownlist id?

var e = $("#<%=ddlCategory.ClientID%> option:selected").val();

                 alert(e);
 <blogControl:UCCategory  ID="ddlCategory" runat="server"  />

Is <blogControl:UCCategory /> a UserControl that contains a DropDownList? If so, you'd need to expose the UserControl's DropDownList ClientID, rather than the UserControl's ClientID. You could do this by putting a public read-only property in the UserControl that returns its DropDownList's ClientID, then use that in your jquery selector. — Netricity

i solve this problem to use this code,

C#

public string GetCategoryClientID()
{
    return   ddlCategory.ClientId;
}

Js

var e = document.getElementById("<%=GetCategoryClientID() %>");
alert(e.options[e.selectedIndex].value);
