Answer 1

I am noob like you, but I've learned some php mysqli from here (note: always type misqli instead of mysql in your code) https://m.youtube.com/watch?list=PL7lhMROXakvdLAUKFNLYl_J2Ti0Ulr6ID&params=OAFIAVgB&v=dWzzRkxrTMA&mode=NORMAL. And about json: alue into the the input's max attribute. Something like this will do the trick.

window.onload (//or what trigger method you need) = function() {
 var (//name a var) = $('#idOfElementTogetValueFrom').val();
 $.ajax(
 {type: 'post',
 url: 'path to php doc.php',
 dataType: 'json'
 data: {
 NameX: nameOfVar declared above,
},
 success: function (response){
 $('#idOfelementWhereToDisplayphpResponse').html(response.matchthatnameinPhp); 
}
});
}

In your php js variable will be like $_POST['NameX'] (do what you need with it) Then in php echo json_encode array( "matchthatnameinPhp" => any php you need, vars etc.(//this will be displayed in html) (//You can add more rows of datas here) ) See also: Send JSON data from Javascript to PHP?

I got the solution, by saving the data in an array and on submit button passing it to controller

• Pooja Bajaj Dhoot: On every selection of dropdown they were getting added to an array and that array was passed to controller for further processing.
