i have a select and i am trying to retrieve the displayed value of current selected option and i don't mean mean the value="" or `.val()`
let say this is my select

```
<select id="name" >
<option value="">select all</option>
<option selected="selected" value="1">Text 1</option>
<option value="2">Text 2</option>
<option value="3">Text 3</option>
</select>

```

lets say i am trying to retrieve the selected value of the current selected "Text 1"

I've tried

```
$('#name').text();

```

But this returns the text of all 4 options.

is there a better way ?
