Problem with dropdown and codeigniter
- by JEagle
Hi, i'm using 2 dropdowns where the second gets populated from the first choice.
My problem is that i'm not getting the value from the first dropdown.
What i get is [object Object].
Here's the javascript and php code:
Thanks.
Javascript:
function getState(){
$("#selectestate").bind("change",function(){
$("#selectcity").load("results/ajaxcity", {stat: $(this).val()} ); //This is where the problem is
alert({stat: $(this).val()});//Shows [object Object]
});
return false;
}
PHP:
$curstat=$this -> input -> post('state'); //current selected state in first dropdown
<tr>
<?php $js = 'id="selectstate" onChange="getState();"';?>
<td><h3> State: </h3></td>
<td id="selectestate"><?php echo form_dropdown('state', $stat, $curstat, $js);?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><h3> City: </h3></td>
<td id="selectcity"><?php echo form_dropdown('city', $cit);?></td>
</tr>
