Hi, I have two dropdown lists which should display campus and selected campus’ buildings. When I choose campus, second dropdown isn’t changed. However, when I check it with Firebug, response seems ok.
view:
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model, 'locationId'); ?>
<?php echo $form->dropDownList(Location::model(),'campus', CHtml::listData(Location::model()->findAll(), 'campus', 'campus'),
array(
'empty' =>'--please select--',
'ajax' => array(
'type'=>'POST', //request type
'url'=>CController::createUrl('dynamicBuildings'), //url to call.
//Style: CController::createUrl('currentController/methodToCall')
'update'=>'#building', //selector to update
//'data'=>'js:javascript statement'
//leave out the data key to pass all form values through
)));
?>
<?php echo $form->error(Location::model(),'campus'); ?>
</div>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx(Location::model(), 'building'); ?>
<?php echo $form->dropDownList(Location::model(),'building', array(), array('empty' =>'--please select campus first--')); ?>
<?php echo $form->error(Location::model(),'building'); ?>
</div>
Controller:
public function actionDynamicBuildings()
{
//please enter current controller name because yii send multi dim array
//$campus = $_POST['Location'];
$data=Location::model()->findAll('campus=:campus',
array(':campus'=> $_POST['Location']['campus']));
$data=CHtml::listData($data,'building','building');
if($data == null){
echo CHtml::tag('option',
array('empty'),CHtml::encode('--please select campus first--'),true);
}
else{
echo CHtml::tag('option',
array('empty'),CHtml::encode('--please select--'),true);
}
foreach($data as $value=>$building)
{
echo CHtml::tag('option',
array('value'=>$value),CHtml::encode($building),true);
}
}
Firebug response is in this type: "<option 0="empty">–please select–</option><option value="BCC">BCC</option><option value="EB">EB</option><option value="G">G</option><option value="Other…">Other…</option>". I want second dropdown to show exactly these values but it shows only "–please select campus first–". What can be the problem?
Thanks
