Hi :) what is the fastest way to edit a <select> item? I need to show some <option>'s and hide some others, depending on the value of another select. let's say if the user selects a country for his holiday, in the '#hotel_paese' select, the '#hotel_destinazione' select will show only the hotels of that country. problem is that the '#hotel_destinazione' select has already got its values, so I'm using the class attribute to keep track of the country. so if, say, egypt has code '001', then sharm el sheik, abu simbel, aswan, luxor, and so on will all have class '001'.
the .show() and .hide() methods seem to be a little too slow. or maybe is my code? // this is the select $('#hotel_paese').change(function(){ var $this = $(this); var sel_val = $this.val(); $('#hotel_destinazione option').show() if (sel_val != '') $('#hotel_destinazione option').not('.' + sel_val).hide(); }); thank you very much :)
