Question

I’m trying to create an Ajax call which is triggered when a Select box changes. It loads another PHP function using

$('.selectbox').load("/path/to/script.php?x=" + x + "&y=" + y);

This call is successfull since I can see in Firebug that the call returns the HTML from the PHP (which are in fact <option> tags). However, this HTML is not placed into the .selectbox element. What am I doing wrong?

Your code seems correct. Make sure you get the proper HTML markup to be inserted into <select>. The expected response is <option value="1">1</option><option value="2">2</option>

Or Try using other Ajax methods like $.get or $.ajax
