How to use Jquery for getting values from Dropdown

Question

Hi All

 

I have a dropdown that binds with Database and here is the code:

var stat = db.tb_Status.ToList();

ddltype.DataSource = stat;

ddltype.DataTextField = "Status";

ddltype.DataValueField = "Status_Id";

ddltype.DataBind();

ddltype.Items.Insert(0, new ListItem("Select Vehicle Status"));

 

Its working fine now i want a script to allow me if I select items from the dropdown some buttons must hide and others show. here is the View code:

 

<div class="form-group">

<label for="usr"><b>Vehicle Status:</b></label>

<div>

<asp:DropDownList ID="ddltype" runat="server" required="true" class="form-control" Width="250px" Height="34px"></asp:DropDownList>

</div>

</div>

 

I managed to hide them initially like this:

$("[id*=btnAdd]").hide();

 

I want them to show depending on selected value on the dropdown.

Please Assist.
