How to get real value from selectOneChoice with javascript?

Question

Hi,
How to get real value from selectOneChoice with javascript? The event.getNewValue() only gets me the index of the selected item, not the value/title.
JSF page:
<af:resource type="javascript">
function parseAddress(event)
alert("new value: " + event.getNewValue());
</af:resource>
<af:selectOneChoice label="Location:" value="" id="soc4">
<af:clientListener type="valueChange" method="parseAddress" />
<f:selectItems value="#{Person.locations}" id="si7"/>
</af:selectOneChoice>
HTML :
<option title="225 Broadway, New York, NY-10007" selected="" value="0">225 Broadway (Central Office)</option>
<option title="90 Mark St., New York, NY-10007" value="1">90 Mark St. (Central Office)</option>
Thanks a lot.

Something I was missing ,
You need to add valuePassThru="true" in your <af:selectOneChoice component. I have personally tested it and got the actual value in alert box. I hope this time you got the real solution. You can also test the following code by your end.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich">
<jsp:directive.page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8"/>
<f:view>
<af:document id="d1">
<af:form id="f1">
<af:panelBox text="PanelBox1" id="pb1">
<af:selectOneChoice label="Set Log Level" id="soc1"
value="#{SelectManagedBean.loggerDefault}"
valuePassThru="true">
<af:selectItem label="select one" value="First" id="s6"/>
<af:selectItem label="select two" value="Second" id="s56"/>
<af:clientListener method="setLogLevel" type="valueChange"/>
</af:selectOneChoice>
<af:resource type="javascript">
function setLogLevel(evt) {
var selectOneChoice = evt.getSource();
var logLevel = selectOneChoice.getSubmittedValue();
// var logLevelObject = AdfLogger.NONE;
alert("new value is : " + logLevel);
//alert(evt.getSelection);
//alert(logLevelObject);
evt.cancel();
</af:resource>
</af:panelBox>
</af:form>
</af:document>
</f:view>
</jsp:root>
