I am trying to implement a simple Jquery drop down.
HTML
<h2> Networked Graphs</h2>
<p> Select the node ID from the drop down to see graphs up to a depth of 5 </p>
<form id="my form">
<label for="Node_type">Node_Type</label>
<select id="dropdown_change">
<option value="Customer">Customer</option>
<option value="Phone">Phone</option>
<option value="ID_Card">ID_Card</option>
</select>
<input type='submit' value='Submit'>
</form>
This is the jquery code:
var selectID = $("#dropdown_change").val();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '/echo/html/',
data: {
html: "<span>This is the ajax response...</span>",
delay: 2
},
success: function(data) {
showMsg('SUCCESS: ' + data);
},
error: function (xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
document.getElementById('dropdown_change').selectedIndex = 0;
showMsg('ERROR: ' + errorThrown);
return false;
}
});
}) // closes ?
Selecting from the drop down and clicking on the submit button should display the success message 'SUCCESS: This is the Ajax response'.
Even though I specify "type: POST" and SUCCESS as well as ERROR messages, it fails with the below error:
{"error": "Please use POST request"}
Here is the Jsfiddle. Trying to learn javascript/jquery.
