Rails - Jun 2013 - groups_from_collection_for_select selector

Hi all,

Anybody know what the jQuery selector is for the "selected" value of a
option_groups_from_collection_for_select

I''m trying to listen for a button click and then determine whether the
user has selected an item from a dropdown or not... (not the same
button)

Coffee:
$(''.landing_edit_questions_btn'').click ->
      if $(''#minisections'').val()??? == "Select an
Area"
      alert(''Select an area!'')

erb:
<%= select_tag :minisections,
option_groups_from_collection_for_select(Subsection.order(:title),
:minisections, :title, :id, :title), :prompt => "Select an Area"
%>

Any help appreciated!
Thanks DaveC
