I'm trying to put a value from javascript into a form action in Yii2 is it possible? More specifically I need to make a URL change for each option that is selected in a dropdownList.
form in views/site.php
$form = ActiveForm::begin([
'id' => 'form',
'method' => 'POST',
'action' => Url::to(['programas/'.Tours::findOne(['pk' => ])->programa]),
]);
<?= $form->field(new \app\models\Tours(), 'nombre')->dropDownList([],
[
'prompt' => 'Programa',
'id' => 'child1_child2',
'onchange' => 'updateValue(this.value)',
]
)->label(false); ?>
Js file
function updateValue(val){
x = document.getElementById("test").value;
// document.getElementById("form").action = "programas/";
}
So, I rescue the value from the selected option with JS but I need to put it in here 'pk' => 'value'
where value is the #child1_child2 selected option value.
'action' => Url::to(['programas/'.Tours::findOne(['pk' => ])->programa])
Thanks for the help.
You can use one of the following approach with some modification:
//pk => programa
$data = [
1 => 'programa1',
2 => 'programa2',
3 => 'programa3',
];
1) Use JS
<?= $form->field(new \app\models\Tours(), 'nombre')->dropDownList($data, ['prompt' => 'Programa'])->label(false); ?>
JS
$this->registerJs('
$("#dropdownID").change(function() {
var text = $("#dropdownID option:selected").text();
$("#formID").attr("action", "/pathtoproject/programas/" + text);
});
', \yii\web\View::POS_END);
2) Use Ajax Call
<?= $form->field(new \app\models\Tours(), 'nombre')->dropDownList($data, [
'prompt' => 'Programa',
'onchange'=> '$.get( "'.Url::toRoute('get-action').'", { id: $(this).val() } )
.done(function( data ) {
$("#formID").attr("action", data);
}
);'
])->label(false); ?>
Controller
public function actionGetAction($id)
{
$name = Tours::findOne(['pk' => $id])->programa];
echo \yii\helpers\Url::to(['programas/'.$name]);
}
