Question

How do i use jquery ajax .load function for dropdownlist?

this is my php page

<? 
$query="SELECT Name FROM supplier";
$result=mysql_query($query);
?>
<select name="ddlSupplier">
<option>Supplier Name</option>
<? while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { ?>
<option value><?=$row['Name']?></option>
<? } ?>
</select>

how do i get value after load?

$("#ddlSupplier").val()? this.val()?

I don’t have your markup on which you call .load(), so I’m gonna use #placeholder as the selector to which you will be injecting the dropdown:

$('#placeholder').load('yourphppage.php', function(html) {
   $(this).find('select[name=ddlSupplier]').val();
});

Note that the callback is called after HTML insertion, so you can do find(). Docs:

If a “complete” callback is provided, it is executed after
post-processing and HTML insertion has been performed. The callback is
fired once for each element in the jQuery collection, and this is set
to each DOM element in turn.
