How to show or hide the data based on dropdown selection-CodePudding

In my angular application I have a dropdown list and below that some data is in div.

component.html

<select  id="power" required>
  <option value="" disabled selected>Select a category</option>
  <option *ngFor="let category of categoryNames">{{ category }}</option>
</select>

<!--below code I have to show or hide-->

<div >
  <div >
    <p>Slect Habits</p>
    <h5 >Slect Items</h5>
  </div>
  <div >
    <p>Slect Habits</p>
    <h5 >Slect Items</h5>
  </div>
</div>

So my requirement is when I click on any of the items from the dropdown list I have to show the div (after the dropdown in above code)

Can anyone help me regarding the same.

CodePudding user response：

You can define a template variable (e.g. #mySelect) on the <select> element, then use it to determine the selected value: mySelect.value.

In case you need to display the div if the selected category equals to 'Habit', you can try the following:

<!-- #mySelect is declared on <select> element -->
<select  id="power" required #mySelect>
  <option value="" disabled selected>Select a category</option>
  <option *ngFor="let category of categoryNames">{{ category }}</option>
</select>

<div  *ngIf="mySelect.value === 'Habits'">
  <div >
    <p>Slect Habits</p>
    <h5 >Slect Items</h5>
  </div>
  <div >
    <p>Slect Habits</p>
    <h5 >Slect Items</h5>
  </div>
</div>
