I have two selects, I want to configure them so that only a certain amount of options show in the second select, depending on which first selection is chosen.
I found some code from this post and I've tried to edit it for my situation, as I need too keep the values as they are, because I'm using them in a calculator that needs them like that.
If any one could help me fix/finish this code so it works, it would be much appreciated!
What I'm trying to achieve:
Here is the JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/mbxz186q/
But here is the code so far as well:
$(function() {
'use strict';
var savedOpts = "drawer-shelf-combo-x()";
$('#C7-Drawer-Shelf-Combo').change(function() {
//Add all options back in;
if (savedOpts) {
$('#C7-Under-Drawer-Bench').append(savedOpts);
savedOpts = "";
}
//Return false if blank option chosen;
if ($(this).val() === "0")
return false;
var chosenCreds = parseInt($(this).val());
console.log(chosenCreds);
$('#C7-Under-Drawer-Bench option').each(function() {
var thisCred = parseInt($(this).val());
console.log(thisCred);
if (thisCred > chosenCreds) {
//Remove
savedOpts += $(this)[0].outerHTML;
$(this).remove();
}
});
console.log(savedOpts);
});
});

What I'm trying to achieve:<br />

If the user selects combo-x1,<br />
bench-x1 option only shows<br />
--<br />
If the user selects combo-x2,<br />
bench-x1 option + bench-x2option only shows<br />
--<br />
If the user selects combo-x3,<br />
bench-x1 option + bench-x2 + bench-x3 option only shows<br />
--<br />
If the user selects combo-x4 up to combo-8,<br />
all options show<br />
--<br />
Thank you!
Don't need jquery or complex javascript for this, most of it can be done via css:
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", e =>
{
'use strict';
const combo = document.getElementById("C7-Drawer-Shelf-Combo"),
bench = document.getElementById("C7-Under-Drawer-Bench");
combo.addEventListener("input", e =>
{
/* let CSS know which item selected */
bench.setAttribute("show", e.target.selectedIndex);
/* reset second dropdown if selected item no longer available */
if (e.target.selectedIndex && e.target.selectedIndex < 4 && bench.selectedIndex > e.target.selectedIndex)
bench.selectedIndex = 0;
});
});
#C7-Under-Drawer-Bench[show="1"] > option:nth-child(n+3),
#C7-Under-Drawer-Bench[show="2"] > option:nth-child(n+4),
#C7-Under-Drawer-Bench[show="3"] > option:nth-child(n+5)
{
display: none;
}

Or via pure javascript:
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", e =>

'use strict';
const combo = document.getElementById("C7-Drawer-Shelf-Combo"),
bench = document.getElementById("C7-Under-Drawer-Bench");
combo.addEventListener("input", e =>
{
for(let i = 0; i < bench.children.length; i++)
bench.children[i].hidden = e.target.selectedIndex < 4 && i > e.target.selectedIndex;
/* reset second dropdown if selected item no longer available */
if (e.target.selectedIndex && e.target.selectedIndex < 4 && bench.selectedIndex > e.target.selectedIndex)
bench.selectedIndex = 0;
});
