Help withJS Form Validation

Question

I'm working on a js form validation and so far I have this:

        // grab form field values
    var valid = '';
    var name = $('form #name').val();

    // perform error checking
    if (name = '' || name.length <= 2) {
        valid = '<p>Your name' + required +'</p>';
    }

How can I validate that the user has chosen one of the options from a dropdown that I have in my form?

Thanks in advance.
