Livewire form submit select option name='' not working

here is my code -

Blade -

<form wire:submit.prevent="save(Object.fromEntries(new FormData($event.target)))">
	<select name='parent_id'>
		<option value=''> select </option>
		<option value='a'> a </option>
		<option value='b'> b </option>
    </select>

	<input type='text' name='name'>

	<input type='text' name='address'>
</form>

Controller -

public function save($formData){
	dd($formData);
}

Here when I dd() the input text i got but not the select data. I dont understant where i did wrong here?

@mahbubrn Why not you try with wire:model approach?

<form wire:submit.prevent="save">
    <select name="parent_id" wire:model="parent_id">
        <option value="">Select</option>
        <option value="a">A</option>
        <option value="b">B</option>
    </select>

    <input type="text" name="name" wire:model="name">
    <input type="text" name="address" wire:model="address">

    <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
public function save()
{
    dd([
        'parent_id' => $this->parent_id,
        'name' => $this->name,
        'address' => $this->address,
    ]);
}

@tisuchi yes, i know that data binding. but for some reason i need that way.

@tykus I need the select data from name=" " value, not wire:model=" ".

I found the some solution from here

https://github.com/livewire/livewire/issues/313

but its working for input text. select name='' not working.

@mahbubrn you still do not explain why you need this approach; the Github thread you reference is really old?

What else are you not sharing; the code snippet you shared above works in Livewire 3?

@tykus its complicated to explain why i need this. so i skipped this. and yes its works in livewire 3

Why is there a wire.submit.prevent? shouldn't it be wire.submit?
