I have a select dropdown:
<select onChange={(e)=> console.log(e.target.id)} id="cars" name="carlist" form="carform" >
<option id="a" value="volvo">
Volvo
</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="opel">Opel</option>
<option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select>
I would like to get the ID a when selecting 'volvo' from the dropdown, thus getting the ID of the option, how can I achieve this?
The reason why I'm trying to get an id is because this dropdown can have multiply options with the same name (they would be separated by a line)

Use the selectedIndex to get this.
var getId = document.querySelector('#cars');
console.log(getId.options[getId.selectedIndex].id);

You can have the pass the reference of 'this' and get it from there.

I'm working on my MVC project and need to bind selected value with textbox - what I mean is when you choose an item on a selected list then this value appears in a text box. Here is an example:
<div class="row">
<select id="chasis" name="type">
<option value="sedan">sedan</option>
<option selected value="hatchaback">hatchback</option>
<option value="cabrio">cabrio</option>
<option value="coupe">coupe</option>
</select>
</div>
<label>Your choice is: <input id="chasisText" type="text" value=""></label>
and jQuery code:
<script>
$(function() {
$("select#chasis").change(function(e){
$("#chasisText").val(e.target.value);
});
});
</script>
This code works well but my question is if there is any other way to show selected value in a textbox? Maybe easier or more tricky?
add jquery cdn to head part of your HTML if you havent added, ignore if already added.
add chasisChange function to select
<select id="chasis" onchange="chasisChange()" name="type">
below Jquery function (chasisChange()) will be executed when value changes of select portion of HTML.
function chasisChange(){
var val = $('#chasis').val();
console.log(val);
$('#chasisText').val(val);
}
working example

Is it possible to use jquery to filter select options to only show options with a certain value?
Say I had this:
var testArray = ["foo", "bar"];
<select id="dropdown">
<option>bar</option>
<option>baz</option>
<option>foo</option>
</select>
After my script executes, I'd like to be left with the following:
<select id="dropdown">
<option>bar</option>
<option>foo</option>
</select>
You can select all elements which are not in your array using .not() and $.inArray(), and then remove them using .remove().
See example below:
var testArray = ["foo", "bar"];
$("#dropdown option").not(function() {
return $.inArray($(this).val(), testArray) > -1;
}).remove();
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="dropdown">
<option>bar</option>
<option>baz</option>
<option>foo</option>
</select>

Improve this question
how to include write-in option after drop-down option in html or javascript. As an example in the coding below,
<select>
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="vw">VW</option>
<option value="audi" selected>Audi</option>
</select>
But the user's choice wasn't in the list given (e.g. Honda). so he/she can write their option in 'others' option.
Apologies for my english. Thanks in advance.
It seems you may want to use the <datalist> along with an <input>, which offers the functionality you're looking for; in the below example if the user types S then the option of Saab will show up which can be selected, or the user can continue to type to add a new option to the list:
<datalist id="carOptions">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="vw">VW</option>
<option value="audi" selected>Audi</option>
</datalist>
<input type="text" name="automaker" list="carOptions" />
While this may not be precisely what you're hoping for it does offer the functionality you require without a dependence on JavaScript.
References:
* <datalist>.
* HTMLDataListElement.
You can easily do that with jquery.
$('#dropdownId').append($('<option>', {
value: -1,
text: 'None of them work for me..'
}));
And just handle the case when the value is -1

I have a select item with in there a few options, and one of them is called "other..". What I want is that when a user clicks on "other.." a textarea will appear, I know this can be done with jQuery. Here is a short and simple version of my HTML:
<html>
<body>
<select>
<option value="opt1">Option 1</option>
<option value="opt2">Option 2</option>
<option value="opt3">Option 3</option>
<option value="opt4">Option 4</option>
<option value="other">Other..</option>
</select>
<input type="text" id="other_text" />
</body>
</html>
Add the change event to your dropdown list, which will toggle the text field if the selected value is "other":
$('select').on('change', function() {
$('#other_text').toggle(this.value === 'other');
});
