Laravel: Display data using drop down list

Question

I am implementing a drop down menu list to display a list of hotels from my system. I currently have the following code which when i click submit, nothing is happening (no data displayed).

Does anyone know how i can potentially display data once i press submit. I do believe i need code in my controller.

SEARCH.BLADE.PHP

<form action="/search" method="POST" role="search">
   <div class="form-group">
    <select name="country" id="country" class="form-control input-lg dynamic" data-dependent="state">
 @foreach($posts as $post)
  <option value="{{$post->distance}}">{{$post->distance}} </option>
 @endforeach

   <br/>
   <div class="form-group">
    <select name="state" id="state" class="form-control input-lg dynamic" data-dependent="city">
    </select>
   </div>
   <br />
   <div class="form-group">
    <select name="city" id="city" class="form-control input-lg">
    @foreach($posts as $post)
  <option value="{{$post->title}}">{{$post->title}} </option>
 @endforeach
</div>
    </select>
   </div>
  </div>
  {{Form::Submit('submit', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary'])}}
 </body>

SearchController.php

class SearchController extends Controller { 
   public function index()
   {
     $posts = Post::all();
     return view('Pages.search')->with('posts', $posts);
   }

I do not have much is the search controller but i do believe i need some code in there to display the data.

close your <select> tag with </select>, and debug $posts to insure in has data from database — Abdelrahman M. Allam

You need to pass data to Controller Function and write a query for search ,close you select tag and form — Lalit Kumar

i removed the select tag in this instance as it was too much code. Are you able to write code of what it should be in the controller ? — TheCodingKid

you need to close your </select> tags. also you can clean up your controller code with using compact return view('Pages.search', compact('posts')); — mafortis

Use this

<form action="/search" method="POST" role="search">

<div class="form-group">

<select name="country" id="country" class="form-control input-lg dynamic" data-dependent="state">

@foreach($posts as $post)
   <option value="{{$post->id}}">{{$post->title}} </option>
@endforeach

</select>
</div>

<div class="form-group">

<select name="city" id="city" class="form-control input-lg">

@foreach($posts as $post)
  <option value="{{$post->id}}">{{$post->title}} </option>
@endforeach

</select>
</div>

<div class="form-group">

<button type="submit" class="btn btn-adminsqure pull-right submitbutton"> Submit</button>

</div>

Also change in your controller

class SearchController extends Controller { 

  public function index()
  {
    $posts = Post::get();
    return view('Pages.search', compact('posts'));
  }

public function index()
        {
            $posts = Post::latest()->get();
            return view('search',compact('posts'));
        }
@foreach($posts as $post)
  <option value="{{$post->id}}">{{$post->title}} </option>
 @endforeach
