How to get the selected value from the set crm 4 dynamic 2011 online option

Question

This is a javascript related issue with crm 4 2011 online

I created the -status: open, closed parameter and an onchange event handler that calls the run function with the context parameter as the parameter.

In js, I tried the following and more:

function run(selectedItems) { var s = selectedItems[0]; } 

But I always get the variable undefined.

How to get the selected value from a set of parameters?

thanks

EDIT:

I tried

 function run() { alert("hello"); var texter = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_state_request").getSelectedOption().text; alert(texter); } 

just now. Gettin this: Error in custom event of this field. field: new_state_request Event: OnChange Error: undefined
