When you select a different week (uke) from a dropdown on the right or trainer from the left dropdown above the schedule, it submit automatically . You don’t need to click Submit(Vis).

How do you submit when you just select an option from a dropdown list?

Can it be done with jquery?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can do by triggering the .submit() event, like this:

$("select").change(function() {
  $(this).closest("form").submit();
});

$("select").change(function() {
  $(this).closest("form")[0].submit();
});

The above examples would make it happen with any <select> element, just give it a different selector like an ID, for example: $("#mySelect"), or a class if you have multiple, for example:

<select class="autoSubmit">

And bind it using:

$(".autoSubmit").change(function() { ...
