Question: Some of Facebooks programmer puzzles look fun, so I'm trying to get set up to code in C++ on my mac. I decided to try compiling some of my old CS homework with GCC to get started.

My code compiles fine, but when I try to run the executable (called "encrypt") I get this:

```
-bash: encrypt: command not found

```

I checked the permissions on the file and it seems to have execute permission. What am I missing here?

Answer: 
Change your html to the valid `value=` instead of `val=`
Try this instead:

```
<select id="dropdownList">
  <option value="1">Item One</option>
  <option value="2">Item Two</option>
  <option value="3">Item Three</option> <!-- this works -->
  <option val="3">Item Three</option>   <!-- this is what you HAD before -->
</select>

```

Or if that's not an option, then get the selected index and look for the `$(this).attr('val')`
