I have 2 select's inside a form. The second select has about 2000 lines in total coming out of my mysql table. One of the column into that mysql has 1 of the values used into the first select. I want to be able to filter on that value when it is selected into the first select, so that it only shows these articles.
code now:
<div class="rmaform">
<select name="discipline" class="discipline">
<option value=" " selected></option>
<option value="access">ACCESS</option>
<option value="inbraak">INBRAAK</option>
<option value="brand">BRAND</option>
<option value="cctv">CCTV</option>
<option value="airphone">AIRPHONE</option>
<option value="perimeter">PERIMETER</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="rmaform">
<select name="article" class="input-article">
<?php
$articleselect = $dbh->prepare('SELECT * FROM articles');
$articleselect->execute();
while($articlerow = $articleselect->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)){
?>
<option value="<?php echo $articlerow['a_code'];?>"><?php echo $articlerow['a_code'];?> <?php echo $articlerow['a_omschr_nl'];?></option>
<?php
}
?>
</select>
I think i have to use Javascript for it but how do you combine PHP and Javascript? And what would be the best way to make the filter work?
