Empty <select> causes error: 'Cannot read textContent' of undefined

[Jonny Burger]

Demo: http://codepen.io/JonnyBurger/pen/Oyerxx

element.options[element.selectedIndex].textContent;

element.selectedIndex is -1, therefore this error happens

An empty <select> element is seldom visible, but the error can happen even if the <select> element is in a hidden container

Thank you for fixing this after 6 years! 😃 I completely forgot about opening this issue, but still a nice surprise!
