How to make servlet call from select box?

I have a select box in my jsp page and each and every selection i have to call servlet and display the content in same jsp page.

example code:

<select>
  <option value="spain">spain</option>
  <option value="france">France</option>
  <option value="italy">Italy</option>
  <option value="germany">Germany</option>
</select>

Onclick option one to show the country details of spain. same as each and every option.
So how to work with javascript / jquery?

Answer 1

If I understand your question this what you have to do,

Javascript:

function getValue(val){
   document.getElementById('myDiv').innerHTML = val;
}

html:

<select onchange="getValue(this.value)">
  <option value="spain">spain</option>
  <option value="france">France</option>
  <option value="italy">Italy</option>
  <option value="germany">Germany</option>
</select>
<div id="myDiv"></div>
