Please tell me how can i store the old value of the drop down list.
One possibility is to store them in a temporary javascript array using the .map()
function:
var oldValues = $('#myselect option').map(function() {
return { value: $(this).val(), text: $(this).text() };
});
or completely clone the dropdownlist using the .clone()
method:
var dropdown = $('#myselect').clone(true);
and later restore it back.
solved Store Dropdown list old values and re populate them
