state and gender is not showing using getAttribute("value");
You could make use of find.
One option to get the state could be to use the id and get the selected option #cpBody_ddlState option[selected]
$state = $html->find('#cpBody_ddlState option[selected]', 0)->plaintext;
echo $state; //RAJASTHAN
To get the selected radio button you might use #cpBody_rbtnListGender input and loop though the items until the attribute checked matches:
foreach ($html->find('#cpBody_rbtnListGender input') as $input) {
if ($input->hasAttribute("checked")) {
echo $input->getAttribute("value"); // MALE
}
}
idk why you're doing this with php.'
in javascript u can create a p to pass the value to it:
<body onload="pageloaded()">
<p id="display"></p>
in javascript:
var p = document.getElementById("display");
var value = document.getElementById("cpBody_rbtnListGender").value;
function pageloaded(){
p.innerHTML = value;
}
u can do the same for ur other needs

I have setup a function with jQuery that hides and un-hides related select's after a has changed the first one. The problem is that if a user chooses one value and then changes it to another value in a different relates select then the first one he chose stays selected and they both get submitted with the form.
How can I reset the hidden select values if the user changes his mind?
Here's my code:
/*Setup jQuery Function to hide/unhide selects */
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var $topSelect = $('select[name="dropdownmain"]');
var $nestedSelects = $('select[name!="dropdownmain"]');
showApplicableSelect();
$topSelect.change(showApplicableSelect);
function showApplicableSelect() {
$nestedSelects.hide();
$('select[name="' + $topSelect.val() + '"]').show();
}
});
</script>
/* Example of the select items and how they are related */

Use jQuery to
reset selected property and
force value to initial value
Code:
$nestedSelects
.prop("selected", false)
.val("-1") // or .val("PLEASE SELECT")
.hide();
I have updated your HTML dropdown initial value from "PLEASE SELECT" to -1.
<option selected='selected' value='-1'>PLEASE SELECT</option>

I need your help! I am trying to save a variable in sql table using Php but I have problem. There are two questions in php, the first concern the continent and the second is depended from the continent. I want to use a loop to check which of the continents has been selected in the first question and then save the value of the second question. I hide the option of unchecked continent using some javascript code (I don't have problem).
The HTML code:
<form method="post" action="">
<fieldset><legend>Continents</legend>
<select id="q1" name="q1">
<option value="1">Africa</option>
<option value="2">Asia</option>
<option value="3">Australia</option>
<option value="4">America</option>
<option value="5">Europe</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="Africa">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="Asia">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="Australia">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="America">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="Europe">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
</fieldset>
The Php code
$q1 = $_POST['q1'];
$continents = array("Africa","Asia", "Australia","America","Europe");
for ($i = 1; $i <= 5; $i++) {
if($q1 == $i) {
$q2 = $_POST[$continents[$i-1]]
}
}
Your array should be from 1 to 5 instead of 0 to 4 as you have values 1 to 5 in q1.
Alternatively, I suggest that change your HTML structure to get the continent value in a single line without using loop. You need to change the values of continent like,
<select id="q1" name="q1">
<option value="Africa">Africa</option>
<option value="Asia">Asia</option>
<option value="Australia">Australia</option>
<option value="America">America</option>
<option value="Europe">Europe</option>
</select>
And to get the value of selected continent use $_POST[$_POST['q1']]. For egs, $_POST['q1']=Asia, then $_POST['Asia'] will return the Asia's choice,
$q2= $_POST[$_POST['q1']];
change
$continents =
array(1 => "Africa",
2 => "Asia",
3 => "Australia",
4 => "America",
5 => "Europe");
or
if(($q1-1) == $i) {
$q2 = $_POST[$continents[$i]]
}
First, you may change your select continent HTML:
<select id="q1" name="q1">
<option value="Africa">Africa</option>
<option value="Asia">Asia</option>
<option value="Australia">Australia</option>
<option value="America">America</option>
<option value="Europe">Europe</option>
</select>
Then you could loop over your continents and get the answer:
$q1 = $_POST['q1'];
$continents = array("Africa","Asia", "Australia","America","Europe");
foreach($continents as $continent) {
if ($_POST['q1'] == $continent) {
$q2 = $_POST[$continent];
}
}
Now you have your answer to the second question in $q2.
How about this?
// Always try to seperate logic from your view
// Intialize data
$continents = array("Africa", "Asia", "Australia", "America", "Europe");
// Check for $_POST
if(isset($_POST["q1"])) {
foreach($continents as $id => $continent) {
if($_POST["q1"] == $id) {
// Do something special here
}
}
}
// Render HTML
<form method="post" action="">
<fieldset>
<legend>Continents</legend>
<select id="q1" name="q1">
<!-- Notice that I echo only variables not all of the html -->
<?php foreach($continents as $id => $continent) { ?>
<option value="<?php echo $id; ?>"><?php echo $continent; ?></option>
<?php } ?>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="Africa">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="Asia">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="Australia">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="America">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
<select id="q2" name="Europe">
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
</select>
</fieldset>
Beautiful thing about my solution is that now you can create whatever array you want and your code will always work.
You can for example SELECT data from database and store them in $continents variable.
$query = "SELECT id, name FROM continents";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$continents = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$continents[$row["id"]] = $row["name"];
}
Cool right? :)
I found the solution finally!!!
Replace
$q2 = $_POST[$continents[$i-1]]
with
$q2 = $_POST["{$continents[$i-1]}"];
That solution I wanted!!

You need to move your PHP code to top of the page (before HTML).
For more detailed answer:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/8028987/1724762
header() will not work after you have already output so much HTML. It has to be called before any output is sent to browser
According to PHP Manual
Remember that header() must be called before any actual output is sent, either by normal HTML tags, blank lines in a file, or from PHP. It is a very common error to read code with include, or require, functions, or another file access function, and have spaces or empty lines that are output before header() is called. The same problem exists when using a single PHP/HTML file.
When you write to the output with echo or any function, PHP has already sent the response body.
Which means that you cannot send headers after.
The same apply for html, the html will be displayed and the output has already started so you cannot call header() after.
The same also apply to closing tags ?>. If you have any single space after the closing tag, it will be ignored by the parser (because outside of the closing tag) and the output will start.
So the best solution is to ommit the closing tags, because the parser doesn't need them.
It's like if you were sending an email and add the address after.

<option value="79">WRANGLER</option>
</select></div>
JQuery:
$('select[name="brand"]').change(function(){
var brand = $("select[name='brand']").val();
alert(brand);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '<?php echo site_url("ajax_data/getmodel"); ?>',
dataType: 'json',
data: { vehicle_class : '', vehicle_brand : brand },
success: function(data) {
// Clear all options from vehicle class select
$('select[name="model"] option').remove();
// Fill vehicle class select
$.each(data, function(i, j){
var row = "<option value=\"" + j.model_id + "\">" + j.model_name + "</option>";
$(row).appendTo('select[name="model"]');
});
}
});
});
What is wrong with my code actually? Thank you.
I've just put your code in to a text file (named test.html)...
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="label"><label>Merk</label></div><div id="pilihan"><select name="brand">
<option value="0">PILIH SATU</option>
<option value="1">ACURA</option>
<option value="2">ALFA ROMEO</option>
<option value="3">ASTON MARTIN</option>
: : :
<option value="77">VOLKSWAGEN</option>
<option value="78">VOLVO</option>
<option value="79">WRANGLER</option>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('select[name="brand"]').change(function(){
var brand = $("select[name='brand']").val();
alert( brand );
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
And the code works, perfectly in FireFox, Chrome and IE8.
Also, my mate says salam sejahtera. :o)
You're selecting with select[name=brand], which means you're trying to access
<select value="THIS_IS_WHAT_YOU_ARE_SELECTING">
but you want the selected option, so use
$('select[name=brand] option:selected').val();
