Topic: How to set both value and name in multiselect?
I am wanting to set the name and value of each select option as different values programmatically.
I am using: (docs here)
const multiSelect = document.querySelector('#multiSelection');
const multiSelectInstance = mdb.Select.getInstance(multiSelect);
multiSelectInstance.setValue(['3', '4', '5']);
However, this sets the name and value as the same value.
Sorry all I was looking at this wrong. I was trying to use multiSelectInstance.setValue to create the options however this is only to set the selections.
I ended up using:
const departments = [{ID: 1, Name: "Sales"},{ID: 2, Name: "Operations"}];
const departmentsDropdown = document.querySelector("#departmentsDropdown");
departments.forEach((department) => {
opt = document.createElement("option");
opt.value = department.ID;
opt.textContent = department.Name;
departmentsDropdown.appendChild(opt);
});
