html - form :

<form name="myform" method="post">     <fieldset>         <legend>register interest</legend>         <p><label class="title" for="name">your name:</label>             <input type="text" name="name" id="name"><br />             <label class="title" for="email">your email:</label>             <input type="text" name="email" id="email"></p>             <label class="title" for="persons">persons:</label>             <input id="personsid" type="text" name="persons" id="persons"></p>         <p><label for="location" class="title">your closest center:</label>             <select class="target" name="location" id="location">                  <option id="1" value="ny">new york</option>                  <option id="2" value="il">chicago</option>                  <option id="3" value="ca">san francisco</option>             </select></p>         <span class="title">are member?</span>         <label><input type="radio" name="member" value="yes" /> yes</label>         <label><input type="radio" name="member" value="no" /> no</label></p>     </fieldset> <div class="submit" id="mybutton"><input type="button" value="register" /></div> </form> 

script :

<script type="text/javascript">     $(document).ready(function(){         $( ".target" ).change(function() {             $("tr:even").css("background-color", "green");         });     }); </script> 

instead of using if else add data-city attribute map value of dropdown corresponds column of table. add data-city th this

<th data-city="ny">new york</th> <th data-city="il">chicago</th> <th data-city="ca">san francisco</th> 

based on dropdown value select th , index. entire column (tds) based on index , change css.

$(document).ready(function(){   $( ".target" ).change(function() {     var city = $(this).val(); // <--- value drop down     var index = $('#mytable th[data-city="'+city+'"]').index()+1;       $("td").css("background-color", "transparent"); // <--- reset color columns     $("td:nth-child("+index+")").css("background-color", "green");    }).change(); // <-- color column on load  });
