I know this going to be a very basic question, but please be patient with me as I have just started using js and jquery.
Here is my part of code -
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="module.php">
<select name="dateRange" size="1" onchange="window.location=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">
<option value > Select Duration </option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=1d">Last 24 Hours</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=2d">Last 2 Days</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=1w">Last Week</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=2w">Last 2 Weeks</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=1m">Last Month</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=3m">Last 3 Months</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=6m">Last 6 Months</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=1y">Last Year</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=all">All</option>
</select>
</form>
</body>
</html>
now I am not understanding how to write a onchange function where I can do all my query and dispplay my result when user selects any value from the dropdown list. And after that I would like to store the selected value in a variable and use that value in the same page ?
Lets say you give an id called mySelect to your select input.
Then you can define:
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#mySelect').on('change', function () {
// do your thing
});
</script>
The above attaches an onchange event (jQuery) to your element and will be triggered every time a user changes the selection.
you will use a handler
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="module.php">
<select name="dateRange" size="1" onchange="window.location=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">
<option value > Select Duration </option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=1d">Last 24 Hours</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=2d">Last 2 Days</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=1w">Last Week</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=2w">Last 2 Weeks</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=1m">Last Month</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=3m">Last 3 Months</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=6m">Last 6 Months</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=1y">Last Year</option>
<option value="/module.php/?dateRange=all">All</option>
</select>
</form>
<script>
$( document ).ready(function() {
$( "select" )
.change(function () {
alert('OnChange happened');
//you can add your stuff here
});
})
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
I have created you a fiddle :)
it uses
$('#duration').on('change', function () {
var selectedEl = $('#duration').val();
console.log(selectedEl);
});
To detect a change in select and val() to get the selected option.
Instead of this :
<select name="dateRange" size="1" onchange="window.location=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">
Try This :
<select name="dateRange" size="1" onchange="submit();">
And in 'MODULE.php' get the selected value using :
$var = $_POST['dateRange'];
echo $var;
And then write your query..

I want to create a selection that triggers another selection to select data from the database when the first selection is selected.
<select id="brandSelect">
<option value="10">Pilih Brand</option>
<option value="20">AMD</option>
<option value="30">Intel</option>
</select>
How to take the data from the database if option 1, 2, or 3 is selected, and the second selection option has a value in it? And if the user changes the option, the second selection index is reset.
Here's the code with Javascript Vanilla:
<body>
<select id="brandSelect" onchange="optionSelected(this.value)">
<option value="10">Pilih Brand</option>
<option value="20">AMD</option>
<option value="30">Intel</option>
</select>
</body>
<script>
function optionSelected(value) {
alert(value)
// DO Database Fetch Code Here
}
</script>
And I will tell you there is a good website, we might not need jQuery.
In the bellow Code, by changing the #brandselect you can triger change on the other select. I put specific value. You can add the value you want there.
$(document).on('change', '#brandSelect', function() {
// Here you change the selection of the other Select
$('#graphs').val("20");
})
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="brandSelect">
<option value="10">Pilih Brand</option>
<option value="20">AMD</option>
<option value="30">Intel</option>
</select>
<select id="graphs">
<option value="10">AMD</option>
<option value="20">NVidia</option>
</select>
$(document).on('change', '#brandSelect', function() {
// Here you change the selection of the other Select
$('#brandSelect2').val("2");
$('#brandSelect2').trigger("change");
})
$(document).on('change', '#brandSelect2', function() {
// Here you change the selection of the other Select
alert();
})
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="brandSelect">
<option value="10">Pilih Brand</option>
<option value="20">AMD</option>
<option value="30">Intel</option>
</select>
<select id="brandSelect2">
<option value="1">test1</option>
<option value="2">test2</option>
</select>
first you need to handle change event and from based on that you can handle second dropdown change event.
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="brandSelect">
<option value="10">Pilih Brand</option>
<option value="20">AMD</option>
<option value="30">Intel</option>
</select>
<select id="brandSelect2">
<option value="1">test1</option>
<option value="2">test2</option>
</select>
<script>
$(document).on('change', '#brandSelect', function() {
$('#brandSelect2').val("2");
$('#brandSelect2').trigger("change");
})
$(document).on('change', '#brandSelect2', function() {
//here you can use ajax call to fetch data from database.
alert();
})
</script>
how can I make a page continuously refresh (auto-refresh) based on the value selected from a drop down menu? From Googling, this is what i have so far. Please refer to the code below.
<form>
Update interval (in seconds):
<select name="interval" id="interval">
<option value="5">10</option>
<option value="10">10</option>
<option value="15">15</option>
<option value="20">20</option>
</select>
</form>
<script type="text/JavaScript">
window.setTimeout('window.location="";', document.getElementById('interval').value*1000);
</script>
The problem I am facing right now, is that the page only refreshes in 5 seconds interval (first selection in drop down), no matter what value is selected. I am relative new to html and javascript, hopefully someone can help with this.
You need to do it on change of the select dropdown, otherwise it will just be based on the selected value on page load(5 in your sample code)
<form>
Update interval (in seconds):
<select name="interval" id="interval" onchange="window.setTimeout(function(){ document.location.reload(true); }, this.options[this.selectedIndex].value*1000);">
<option value="" disabled selected>Make a Selection</option>
<option value="5">5</option>
<option value="10">10</option>
<option value="15">15</option>
<option value="20">20</option>
</select>
</form>
JS:
function updateInterval(e) {
var options = e.options
var seconds = options[options.selectedIndex].value
if (this.currentInterval)
clearInterval(this.currentInterval)
if (!isNaN(seconds))
this.currentInterval = setInterval(
function() { location.reload() },
seconds * 1000
)
}
HTML:
<form>
Update interval (in seconds):
<select onChange="updateInterval(this)">
<option>Select</option>
<option value="5">5</option>
<option value="10">10</option>
<option value="15">15</option>
<option value="20">20</option>
</select>
</form>
This question already has answers here:
Get selected value of a dropdown's item using jQuery
(31 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I have an array of select field and want to get the value of selected option using jQuery.
Select field is like
<select name="a[]" onchange="getValue(this)">
<option value="11">11</option>
<option value="12">12</option>
</select>
<select name="a[]" onchange="getValue(this)">
<option value="21">21</option>
<option value="22">22</option>
</select>
and my javascript code is
function getValue(ele) {
alert(ele.val());
}
But it is not working.
<select name="a[]">
<option value="11">11</option>
<option value="12">12</option>
</select>
<select name="a[]">
<option value="21">21</option>
<option value="22">22</option>
</select>
javascript
$("select").on("change", function (event){
alert($(this).val());
})
if you dont want to select all the select input list then you can do this also
$("select[name='a\[\]']").on("change", function (event){
alert($(this).val());
})
this will only select only select list with name=a[]
The val() is a jQuery method which can't use with DOM object. To get value use value property of the element instead.
function getValue(ele) {
alert(ele.value);
// with jQuery it should be
// alert($(ele).val());
}
function getValue(ele) {
alert(ele.value);
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select name="a[]" onchange="getValue(this)">
<option value="11">11</option>
<option value="12">12</option>
</select>
<select name="a[]" onchange="getValue(this)">
<option value="21">21</option>
<option value="22">22</option>
</select>
Since you are tagged jQuery in your question use change() event handler, Inside the change event callback this refers to the corresponding dom object.
// select element with the name attribute equals
// selector can be used and then bind event handler
$('[name="a[]"]').change(function() {
// get the value
alert(this.value)
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select name="a[]">
<option value="11">11</option>
<option value="12">12</option>
</select>
<select name="a[]">
<option value="21">21</option>
<option value="22">22</option>
</select>
Try this :
$(document).ready(function(){
$("select").on("change",function(){
alert($(this).val());
})
})
Final code :

This creates two select boxes, I want one box to display content according to what the user chooses on the other one. For example, if the user chooses, 2010 or 2011 or 2012, I want to display Jan-Dec as options on the second one. If the user chooses, Predefined Dates, I want to display Current Month, Month to Date, and Last 7 Days. The javascript plugin I'm using allows the user to define the onChange, onOpen, and onClose methods. I have been doing some research and it appears that AJAX is involved in trying to accomplish this, but since I don't know one bit of PHP I would like to know if it's possible to accomplish this with jQuery. (I have attempted to solve this problem with no luck of course, I am not looking for someone to do it for me, I just want to be pointed in the right direction, whether I can accomplish this with jQuery or if it's necessary to use AJAX since I haven't seen an example online with only jQuery).
Any help will be appreciated
I hope the following work for your requirement. Having 3 child dropdowns (no divs) 1. --Select--, 2. Jan-Dec 3.Other options
$().ready(function () {
var selectedOnLoad = $('#dateselector_parent').val();
setChild(selectedOnLoad);
$('#dateselector_parent').change(function () {
var selectedValue = $('#dateselector_parent').val();
setChild(selectedValue);
});
});
function setChild(value){
//Have your three child selector names as follows in your markup as well and assuming they are not in divs
var arr = [ "dateselector_child_", "dateselector_child_1", "dateselector_child_2"];
jQuery.each(arr, function() {
if(this == "dateselector_child_" + value){
$("#" + this).show();
}else{
$("#" + this).hide();
}
});
}
UPDATE: Adding markup for the above script
<select name="dateselector_parent" id="dateselector_parent" tabindex="1">
<option value="">--Select Date--</option>
<option value="1">2012</option>
<option value="1">2011</option>
<option value="1">2010</option>
<option value="2">Predefined Dates</option>
</select>
<select name="dateselector_child_" id="dateselector_child_" tabindex="2">
<option value="">--Select Date--</option>
</select>
<select name="dateselector_child_1" id="dateselector_child_1" tabindex="2">
<option value="">--Select Date--</option>
<option value="1">January</option>
<option value="1">February</option>
<option value="1">March</option>
<option value="1">April</option>
<option value="1">May</option>
<option value="1">June</option>
<option value="1">July</option>
<option value="1">August</option>
<option value="1">September</option>
<option value="1">October</option>
<option value="1">November</option>
<option value="1">December</option>
</select>
<select name="dateselector_child_2" id="dateselector_child_2" tabindex="2">
<option value="">--Select Date--</option>
<option value="2">Current Month</option>
<option value="2">Month to Date</option>
<option value="2">Last 7 Days</option>
</select>
Check the setChild(value) function. Parent's selected value is passing to that function when page is ready (just after loading) and also when user change the selection. Parent's selected value could be "","1","2". Next the foreach loop finds the name of the child that needs to show and others are hidden. if user select ---Select--- option of the parent then that function will show "dateselector_child_" and others two hidden.
Hope it's clear now....
Just a startingpoint!
$("#dateselector_parent").change(function() {
$('#dateselector_child').val($(this).find("option:selected").index());
});

AJAX, expands to Asynchronous JavaScript And XML. It involves writing an XMLHTTPRequest to retrieve the contents from a server.
If you can store your logic (what to display when a certain option is chosen) in a few lines of code, you can embed it in JavaScript or jQuery.
So, in your case, it is not necessary to use AJAX. You can accomplish this with a bit of code in JavaScript.

How to use onClick() or onSelect() with option tag? Below is my code in which I tried to implement that, but it is not working as expected.
Note: where listCustomer domain object list getting in JSP page.
<td align="right">
<select name="singleSelect" ">
<c:forEach var="Customer" items="${listCustomer}" >
<option value="" onClick="javascript:onSelect(this);> <c:out value="${Customer}" /></option>
</c:forEach>
</select>
</td>
How do I modify it to detect that an option is selected?
Neither the onSelect() nor onClick() events are supported by the <option> tag. The former refers to selecting text (i.e. by clicking + dragging across a text field) so can only be used with the <text> and <textarea> tags. The onClick() event can be used with <select> tags - however, you probably are looking for functionality where it would be best to use the onChange() event, not onClick().
Furthermore, by the look of your <c:...> tags, you are also trying to use JSP syntax in a plain HTML document. That's just... incorrect.
In response to your comment to this answer - I can barely understand it. However, it sounds like what you want to do is get the value of the <option> tag that the user has just selected whenever they select one. In that case, you want to have something like:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunc() {
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
var selectedValue = selectBox.options[selectBox.selectedIndex].value;
alert(selectedValue);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunc();">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
Even more simplified: You can pass the value attribute directly!
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunc(i) {
alert(i);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunc(value);">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
The alert will either return 1 or 2.
The answer you gave above works but it is confusing because you have used two names twice and you have an unnecessary line of code. you are doing a process that is not necessary.
it's a good idea when debugging code to get pen and paper and draw little boxes to represent memory spaces (i.e variables being stored) and then to draw arrows to indicate when a variable goes into a little box and when it comes out, if it gets overwritten or is a copy made etc.
if you do this with the code below you will see that
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
gets put in a box and stays there you don't do anything with it afterwards.
and
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
is hard to debug and is confusing when you have a select id of selectBox for the options list . ---- which selectBox do you want to manipulate / query / etc is it the local var selectBox that will disappear or is it the selectBox id you have assigned to the select tag
your code works until you add to it or modify it then you can easily loose track and get all mixed up
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunc() {
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
var selectedValue = selectBox.options[selectBox.selectedIndex].value;
alert(selectedValue);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunc();">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
a leaner way that works also is:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunc() {
var selectedValue = selectBox.options[selectBox.selectedIndex].value;
alert(selectedValue);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunc();">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
and it's a good idea to use descriptive names that match the program and task you are working on am currently writing a similar program to accept and process postcodes using your code and modifying it with descriptive names the object is to make computer language as close to natural language as possible.
<script type="text/javascript">
function Mapit(){
var actualPostcode=getPostcodes.options[getPostcodes.selectedIndex].value;
alert(actualPostcode);
// alert is for debugging only next we go on to process and do something
// in this developing program it will placing markers on a map
}
</script>
<select id="getPostcodes" onchange="Mapit();">
<option>London North Inner</option>
<option>N1</option>
<option>London North Outer</option>
<option>N2</option>
<option>N3</option>
<option>N4</option>
// a lot more options follow
// with text in options to divide into areas and nothing will happen
// if visitor clicks on the text function Mapit() will ignore
// all clicks on the divider text inserted into option boxes
</select>
in this example de select tag is named as: aula_clase_cb
<select class="form-control" id="aula_clase_cb" >
</select>
document.getElementById("aula_clase_cb").onchange = function(e){
id = document.getElementById('aula_clase_cb').value;
alert("id: "+id);
};
<div class="form-group">
<script type="text/javascript">
function activa(){
if(v==0)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==1)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==2)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==3)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==4)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==5)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==6)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = false;}
</script>
<label>¿Qué tipo de vehículo está buscando?</label>
<form name="formulario" id="formulario">
<select name="lista" id="lista" onclick="activa(this.value)">
<option value="0">Vehiculo para la familia</option>
<option value="1">Vehiculo para el trabajo</option>

</select>

</div>
You can change selection in the function
window.onload = function () {
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
selectBox.addEventListener('change', changeFunc);
function changeFunc() {
alert(this.value);
}
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Selection</title>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onChange="changeFunc();">
<option> select</option>
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Cars</title>
</head>
<body >
<h1>Cars</h1>
<p>Name </p>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="myFunction(value);">
<option value="volvo" >Volvo</option>
<option value="saab" >Saab</option>
<option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
</select>
<p id="result"> Price : </p>
<script>
function myFunction($value)
{
if($value=="volvo")
{document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = "30L";}
else if($value=="saab")
{document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = "40L";}
else if($value=="mercedes")
{document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = "50L";}
}
</script>
</body>
</html>```
Other option, for similar example but with anidated selects, think that you have two select, the name of the first is "ea_pub_dest" and the name of the second is "ea_pub_dest_2", ok, now take the event click of the first and display the second.
<script>
function test()
{
value = document.getElementById("ea_pub_dest").value;
if ( valor == "value_1" )
document.getElementById("ea_pub_dest_nivel").style.display = "block";
}
</script>
Change onClick() from with onChange() in the . You can send the option value to a javascript function.
<select id="selector" onChange="doSomething(document.getElementById(this).options[document.getElementById(this).selectedIndex].value);">
<option value="option1"> Option1 </option>
<option value="option2"> Option2 </option>
<option value="optionN"> OptionN </option>
</select>
If you need to change the value of another field, you can use this:
<input type="hidden" id="mainvalue" name="mainvalue" value="0">
<select onChange="document.getElementById('mainvalue').value = this.value;">
<option value="0">option 1</option>
<option value="1">option 2</option>
</select>
example dom onchange usage:
<select name="app_id" onchange="onAppSelection(this);">
<option name="1" value="1">space.ecoins.beta.v3</option>
<option name="2" value="2">fun.rotator.beta.v1</option>
<option name="3" value="3">fun.impactor.beta.v1</option>
<option name="4" value="4">fun.colorotator.beta.v1</option>
<option name="5" value="5">fun.rotator.v1</option>
<option name="6" value="6">fun.impactor.v1</option>
<option name="7" value="7">fun.colorotator.v1</option>
<option name="8" value="8">fun.deluxetor.v1</option>

<script type="text/javascript">
function onAppSelection(selectBox) {
// clear selection
for(var i=0;i<=selectBox.length;i++) {
var selectedNode = selectBox.options[i];
if(selectedNode!=null) {

In my case:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunction(val) {
//Show option value
console.log(val.value);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunction(this)">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
focus clears value, so select any value is a change and fires myFunc(this) and blur defocus for reselect
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function myFunc(el) {
//Show option value
console.log(el.value);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="myFunc(this);this.blur();" onfocus="this.selectedIndex = -1;">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
