Get the selected option list in array to send

I need to get the selected values for filtering a table. My selection code is as follows <select id="myGroupFilter">
<optgroup label="Group0"> <option value="1">Value 1</option>
<option value="2">Value 2</option>
<option value="3">Value 3</option>
<option value="4">Value 4</option>
</optgroup> <optgroup label="Group1">
<option value="5">Value 5</option>
<option value="6">Value 6</option>
<option value="7">Value 7</option>
<option value="8">Value 8</option>
</optgroup>
</select>

I tried this alert($("#myGroupFilter option:selected").text());

But I am not getting any value. Please guide me.

Thank you
