I have to populate a third select based on second. I'm trying like code below. As it is I'm feeding first select with all countries in DB. Second select is feeded based on first select.

I need to populate the third select based on second select. The problem is: The first option on third select is the first option of the second, I don't know why it is apearing here.

show_location.php

<?php
function ShowCountries() {
    require 'PDOClasses/connection.php';
    error_reporting(E_ALL);
    ini_set('display_errors', 1);
    $query = $db->query("SELECT id, name FROM countries ORDER BY name ASC");
    $countryId = '<option value="">Selecione o país</option>';
    while($country = $query->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)) {
        $countryId .= '<option value = "'.$country['id'].'">'.$country['name'].'</option>';
    }
    echo $countryId;
}

function ShowStates($id) {
    require '../connection.php';
    error_reporting(E_ALL);
    ini_set('display_errors', 1);
    $query = $db->query("SELECT id, name, country_id FROM states where country_id=$id ORDER BY name ASC");
    $stateId = '<option value="">Selecione o estado</option>';
    while($state = $query->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)) {
        $stateId .= '<option value = "'.$state['id'].'">'.$state['name'].'</option>';
    }
    echo $stateId;
}

function ShowCities($id) {
    require '../connection.php';
    error_reporting(E_ALL);
    ini_set('display_errors', 1);
    $query = $db->query("SELECT id, name, state_id FROM cities where state_id=$id ORDER BY name ASC");
    $cityId = '<option value="">Selecione a cidade</option>';
    while($city = $query->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)) {
        $cityId .= '<option value = "'.$city['id'].'">'.$city['name'].'</option>';
    }
    echo $cityId;
}

if(isset($_POST['id'])){
    ShowStates($_POST['id']);
    ShowCities($_POST['id']);
    die;
}
