Question

I have the following code, and I would like to manipulate it slightly, but feel more familiar doing so in plain javascript:

jQuery ->
  states = $('#person_state_id').html()
  console.log(states)
  $('#person_country_id').change ->
    country = $('#person_country_id :selected').text()
    options = $(states).filter("optgroup[label=#{country}]").html()
    console.log(options)
    if options
      $('#person_state_id').html(options)
    else
      $('#person_state_id').empty()

Thanks!

jQuery(function() {
  var states;
  states = $('#person_state_id').html();
  console.log(states);
  return $('#person_country_id').change(function() {
    var country, options;
    country = $('#person_country_id :selected').text();
    options = $(states).filter("optgroup[label=" + country + "]").html();
    console.log(options);
    if (options) {
      return $('#person_state_id').html(options);
    } else {
      return $('#person_state_id').empty();
    }
  });
});
