AngularJS: Get selected Text and Value of HTML Select DropDownList on Button click using ng-click
The below HTML Markup consists of an HTML DIV to which ng-app and ng-controller AngularJS directives have been assigned.
Note: If you want to learn more about these directives, please refer my article Introduction to AngularJS.
The HTML DIV consists of an HTML Select DropDownList and a Button. The HTML Select DropDownList is populated from JSON array using ng-options directive.
Note: If you want to learn more on how to populate HTML Select DropDownList using ng-options directive, please refer my article Populate HTML Select using ng-options.
The Button has been assigned ng-click directive. When the Button is clicked, the GetValue function of the Controller gets called.
Inside the function, first the selected Value is fetched from the ng-model attribute and the selected Text is fetched from the JSON array using jQuery grep function.
Finally the selected Text and Value is displayed using JavaScript alert message box.
Note: If you want to learn more on displaying JavaScript alert with AngularJS, please refer my article AngularJS: Display (Show) JavaScript Alert box.
