I inherited some javascript code. One of them is a function chg(x) which reloads the page after a drop down list's value has been changed.
How do I use jquery to change the drop down list's value and call chg(x) when the value is changed ?

You should be able to call chg
anywhere where it's valid to call a function, since jQuery IS Javascript.
If chg()
doesn't work, then provide us with some code specific to your situation, because it may not be defined in global context or scope such to call it like that.

Use the .change method:
$('#myDropdownID').change(function() {
$(this).val('some value'); //will change the dropdown's selected value to whatever you want
chg(x);
});
Assuming that the chg() function is somewhere in the code.
