Question

Developing a Web application using Dreamweaver

Answer 1

A:

A simple query is in order? Just use an ajax request to send the selected country to a script, the script should return either XML data to fill the select box with or send the dom select box.

Answer 2

A:

i'd go for the

<select onchange="ajaxGetWhatYouNeedByValue(this.value, 'populate some #id');"><option.....

as i understood your question, you need something like => when you select a village it should return all related data associated with the village. Therefore i suggest you using ajax for background loading needed data.

Please attached is my code. Explain how I could embed that in my code or how best I should modify it. Cheers.The code below is for displaying the data in the villages record set.Ihave similar ones for others<select name="Village"> <?php do { ?> <option value="<?php echo $row_rsVillage['Village_Name']?>" <?php if (!(strcmp($row_rsVillage['Village_Name'], $row_rsVillage['Village_Name']))) {echo "SELECTED";} ?>><?php echo $row_rsVillage['Village_Name']?></option> <?php} while ($row_rsVillage = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsVillage));?> </select>

you must make javascript function, like i gave example above.You can use jquery to fetch data with ajax,function ajaxGetWhatYouNeedByValue(value, id) { $.ajax({ type: "GET", url: '/ajax-data.php?value='+value, success: function (data) { $(id).html(data); } });}so onchange properity for select html element will fire event "onchange" which calls the js function above, the function will populate the desired id e.g. (<div id="element"></div>) with data. you can return data as you wish. This is as far as i understood your question.
