Dropdown onchange calling PHP Function
What i'm attempting to do with the below code is call a PHP function from an dropdown menu.
Is there a clean way of doing this?
code:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<?php
function OnSelectionChange() {
echo("OK IT WORKS");
}
?>
<section>
<select onchange="OnSelectionChange()">
<option value='' disabled selected>Assign Driver</option>
<option value='4353'>Steve Jobs</option>
<option value='3333'>Ian Wright</option>
<option value='66666'>Mark James</option>
</select>
</section>
</body>
</html>
Answer
You can get the selected value from the drop down list simply using php without using JavaScript.
<html>
<head>
<title>Country</title>
</head>
<body>
<form>
Select Your Country
<select name="country" onchange="this.form.submit()">
<option value="" disabled selected>--select--</option>
<option value="india">India</option>
<option value="us">Us</option>
<option value="europe">Europe</option>
</select>
</form>
<?php
if(isset($_GET["country"])){
$country=$_GET["country"];
echo "select country is => ".$country;
}
?>
</body>
</html>
