Here is the demo on how we can get all the keys and values from a drop-down box.
A select box:
<select id = "country"> <option value="">-- Select --</option> <option value="value1" selected>India</option> <option value="value2">United State</option> <option value="value3">Malaysia</option> </select>
Get all option texts:
var e = document.getElementById("country"); var result = ""; for (i = 0; i < e.length; i++) { if(!e.options[i].text.match(/select/gi)){ result = result + e.options[i].text + "<br>"; } }
Get all the values:
var e = document.getElementById("country"); var result = ""; for (i = 0; i < e.length; i++) { if(e.options[i].value){ result = result + e.options[i].value + "<br>"; } }
