How to display select options depend on another select in php?

In a database I have a table 'courses' and each course has number of sections(1,2,3,...) all stored in table 'sections'.

I want to make a form where the user selects a course from the available courses, then displays another selection input with the course's sections to choose from.

Here's what I've done, it worked but when I click 'next' after selecting the course and the section selection shows up, the name of the course selected will not show up. Does anyone know an easier way to do this using PHP or javascript? Can you show me how please.

<form id="form2" action="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>" method="post" onsubmit="return checkData();">

<label for="ccode">Select Course:</label>
<select name='ccode' required>
<option selected="true" disabled="disabled" value="">Select</option>";
<?php
foreach ($courses as $c) 
{
echo "<option >".$c."</option>";
} ?>
</select><br>

        

<?php 
extract($_POST);
if(isset($_POST['next']))
    {
        if(isset($ccode))
        {

            echo"<label for='upsection'>Select section:</label>
            <select name='upsection' id='upsection' required>
                <option selected='true' disabled='disabled' value=''>Select</option>";
                
                    foreach ($sec as $s) 
                    {
                        echo "<option >".$s."</option>";
                    }
            echo "</select><br>";
        }
        else
        {
            echo "<script>alert('Please select a course!');</script>";
        }
        if(isset($_POST['upsection']))
        {
            header('location: updatesection.php');
        }
    }?>
    <button name='next' id='next' >Next</button><br>
            </form>

I'm not good at explaining things but I hope you understand, and can help me with this:)

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
