I have my home.html as
<select name="PublicWords">
<option value="">All</option>
<option value="">Draft</option>
<option value="">Approved</option>
<option value="">Approved ZWNJ</option>
<option value="">Rejected</option>
</select> I would like to perform some action on change in this select tag in my django project How can i perform this action?
Add an onchange event handler on the html element. (Note: I have changed Name to id.)
<select onchange="foo()" id="PublicWords">
<option value="">All</option>
<option value="">Draft</option>
<option value="">Approved</option>
<option value="">Approved ZWNJ</option>
<option value="">Rejected</option>
</select>
Then also include the function call in javascript.
<script type="text/javascript">
function foo() {
// function body here
// for example
d = document.getElementById("PublicWords").value;
alert(d);
}
</script>
Ensure that you have a value assigned to the particular option that closely relates to the option text.
