How do I fire an event when an option is selected from dropdown in ReactJS. Currently I am using onChange
but I need to fire an event even if same option is selected again.
Current code:
<select name="select1" onChange={this.onChangeOption}>
<option value='A'>Please select A...</option>
<option value='B'>Please select B...</option>
<option value='C'>Please select C...</option>
<option value='D'>Please select D...</option>
</select>
I even tried adding onClick
handler to option but that does not fire on click over the options as it works only with elements.
I know there are solutions using jquery by binding click event with option element, but need a solution in React. Dont want to include jQuery for only this requirement.
This is trick, but if you need to fire function with the all changes, even with change of the same option, only one solution I know - use onClick and its detail:
class Select extends React.Component{
onChangeOption(e){
if (e.detail === 0){
console.log(e.target.value);
}
}
render(){
return (
<select name="select1" onClick={this.onChangeOption}>
<option value='A'>Please select A...</option>
<option value='B'>Please select B...</option>
<option value='C'>Please select C...</option>
<option value='D'>Please select D...</option>
</select>
)
}
}
