I have three dropdown list which is country,state and city. At first, the country dropdown would be displayed with all countries. When a country would be chosen, the respective states would be fetched from the MySQL database and appear in the states dropdown. Alike when a state would be chosen, the respective cities will be fetched from the MySQL database and appear in the cities dropdown.
