I am wondering how you can manage to work with server actions within a select, dropdown or whatever element that you would regularly use as a client and with a useState.
In guess we would have to wrap the select within a form and pass the action but how can the action be triggered without a onSubmit button?

and inside the onChange you can just call your server action like a normal function @Yellowstripe scad

@Yellowstripe scad the form stuff is a feature, but it's not the only feature
You can call server actions as normal functions as well
No need to wrap it in forms

Sorry I didn’t understand what you mean @Arinji
I am wondering how can you trigger something like an onChange without a useState using a server action
just make your normal client component with state and onChange events etc
