'"&gt;' . $date .'&lt;/option&gt; '; } endif; ?&gt; &lt;/select&gt; </code></pre> <p>I have another drop down which grabs the taxonomy topic information</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php //list terms in a given taxonomy using wp_list_categories (also useful as a widget if using a PHP Code plugin) $taxonomy = 'topic'; $orderby = 'name'; $show_count = 0; // 1 for yes, 0 for no $pad_counts = 0; // 1 for yes, 0 for no $hierarchical = 1; // 1 for yes, 0 for no $title = ''; $args_topic = array( 'taxonomy' =&gt; $taxonomy, 'orderby' =&gt; $orderby, 'show_count' =&gt; $show_count, 'pad_counts' =&gt; $pad_counts, 'hierarchical' =&gt; $hierarchical, 'title_li' =&gt; $title, 'show_option_all' =&gt; 'TOPIC' ); ?&gt; &lt;ul class="taxonomy-drops series-topic one-fifth"&gt; &lt;li id="categories"&gt; &lt;form action="&lt;?php bloginfo('url'); ?&gt;" method="get"&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;?php wp_dropdown_categories($args_topic); ?&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; </code></pre> <p>I post the information to my ajax page like this and it works fine</p> <pre><code> if ($_POST["topic"]!=0 ) { $topic = array($_POST["topic"]); } else { $topic = get_terms( 'topic', array('fields' =&gt; 'ids') ); //$topic = array(implode(', ',$topic)); } </code></pre> <p>How do I post my dates so that when i click on a dates it takes the information from the topic selected and the corresponding date and gives me the results. This is my function that activates my ajax</p> <pre><code>jQuery('. .series-topic #cat').on('change',function() { var selectedTopic = jQuery('.series-topic #cat').val(); var selectedDate = jQuery('.series-date #date').val(); console.log(selectedTopic); console.log(selectedDate); jQuery.ajax({ type: 'post', url: '/ajax', data: { topic: selectedTopic, date: selectedDate }, success:function(data) { if(data) { jQuery('.-hold').html(data); } else {} } }); }); </code></pre> <p>How do i get my date to work with this</p>
