$('#category').change(function () {

var id = $(this).val();

$('#subCategory').find('option').not(':first').remove();

$.ajax({

url:'category/'+id,

type:'get',

dataType:'json',

success:function (response) {

var len = 0;

if (response.data != null) {

len = response.data.length;

}

if (len>0) {

for (var i = 0; i<len; i++) {

var id = response.data[i].id;

var name = response.data[i].name;

var option = "<option value='"+id+"'>"+name+"</option>";

$("#subCategory").append(option);
