I'm having an issue getting the chosen value of a combobox.

I want to assign the chosen value to a variable so here is what I did.

In the onChange option.

shipmethod = this.getValue();

Isn't that supposed to work?

I set up a textbox with the variable shipmethod to test it and it's not working.

I've also tried:

shipmethod = this.getSelectedItem();

Any thoughts?
