title: How to select/get drop down option in Selenium 2
body: <p>I am converting my selenium 1 code to selenium 2 and can't find any easy way to select a label in a drop down menu or get the selected value of a drop down. Do you know how to do that in Selenium 2?</p>
  
  <p>Here are two statements that work in Selenium 1 but not in 2:</p>
  
  <pre><code>browser.select("//path_to_drop_down", "Value1");
  browser.getSelectedValue("//path_to_drop_down");
  </code></pre>
