JSON:
{"students":
[ {"studentName" : "studentA", "studentGrades" : "gradeC"}, {"studentName" : "studentB", "studentGrades" : "gradeA+"},
]
}
how to make when i select a drop down option of student A then student grades will automatically show on the table ?
i only did parse responsetext and did a console log and got it done i have all the students on the consolelog but not exactly sure how to do it with the select option dropdown.
You can try the below approach to achieve this. Add an onchange event on the select tag and based on the selected option update the grades column.
Full working code:
const data = {
"students": [{
"studentName": "studentA",
"studentGrades": "gradeC"
}, {
"studentName": "studentB",
"studentGrades": "gradeA+"
}, ]
}
function showGrades() {
const dropdowns = document.querySelectorAll('#dropdown')
dropdowns.forEach(dropdown => {
const selectedVal = dropdown.options[dropdown.selectedIndex].id
const formattedVal = selectedVal.charAt(0).toLowerCase() + selectedVal.slice(1)
const grades = data.students.map(item => {
if (item.studentName == formattedVal) {
dropdown.parentElement.parentElement.children[1].innerText = item.studentGrades;
}
})
})
}<table>
<tr>
<th>Student Name</th>
<th>Student Grades</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<select name="dropdown" id="dropdown" onchange="showGrades()">
<option> - </option>
<option id="StudentA"> Student A </option>
<option id="StudentB"> Student B </option>
</select>
</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<select name="dropdown" id="dropdown" onchange="showGrades()">
<option> - </option>
<option id="StudentA"> Student A </option>
<option id="StudentB"> Student B </option>
</select>
</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>Hope that's how you wanted it to work.
You can achieve it by triggering a onchange event on select and then filtered out the students array using Array.filter() method to get the selected option studentGrade.
Working Demo :
const obj = {
"students": [
{"studentName" : "studentA", "studentGrades" : "gradeC"},
{"studentName" : "studentB", "studentGrades" : "gradeA+"},
]
};
function getGrades() {
const selectedOption = document.getElementById('dropdown').value;
document.getElementById('studentGrade').innerHTML = obj.students.find((obj) => obj.studentName === selectedOption).studentGrades;
}<table>
<tr>
<th>Student Name</th>
<th>Student Grades</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<select name="dropdown" id="dropdown" onchange="getGrades()">
<option> - </option>
<option value="studentA"> Student A </option>
<option value="studentB"> Student B </option>
</select>
</td>
<td id="studentGrade"></td>
</tr>
