I am filling DropDown dynamically using AJAX. The DropDown code looks like this:\[code\]<select class="element select medium" id="inDistrict" name="inDistrict" onclick="MakeRequest('divDistrict', 'inDistrict', 'SELECT * FROM districtmaster');" onchange="alert(document.getElementByID('inDistrict').value);"> <option value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1990892/Select" selected="Select">Select</option></select>\[/code\]Another file that executes on AJAX request contains following code:\[code\]<?php require("dbconnection.php"); require("dbaccess.php"); $dropdownControlName = $_GET['DropDownControlName']; $query = $_GET['SqlQuery']; dbconnection::OpenConnection(); $result = dbaccess::GetRows($query);?><select name="<?php echo $dropdownControlName; ?>"><option>Select from the list</option><?php while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ ?> <option value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1990892/<?= $row[0] ?>"><?= $row[1] ?></option><?php } ?></select>\[/code\]Everything works fine and the DropDowns also get filled, except that I am not following how to pick the value of the Option. In the above code you can see that I am using row[0] as value and row[1] as the display item. I want to pick the row[0] value whenever a user selects any row[1] display item.In the first code above, you can see that I added an onchange event and there is just an alert box. But it is not executing. How to pick the row[0] value and why onchange event is not firing?
