angularjsHow do I use the ng-options directive in AngularJS?
The ng-options
directive in AngularJS is used to dynamically generate a list of <option>
elements for the <select>
element. It provides data-binding, which means that the list of options is generated from a JavaScript array and can be changed at runtime.
Example code
<select ng-model="selectedName" ng-options="x for x in names">
<option value="">-- Select a name --</option>
</select>
In the example above, the ng-model
directive sets the selectedName
variable to the selected option from the list. The ng-options
directive is used to generate the list of options from the names
array. The x for x in names
expression is used to iterate through the names
array and generate the list of options.
