angularjs submit form on select change event

Question

I'm using django in the back-end. I need to submit a form with a language parameter and refresh the page to change the language in the front-end.

I've got a select tag which is nested inside a form.

<form>
   ...
   <select name="language" ng-model="selectedLanguage" ng-options="language in languages" ng-change="changeLanguage()">
   ...
</form>

I'd like to submit the form on select change event, what's the best way to do it with angularjs?

The $event object is not available for the change event (angular 1.3.0).

The back-end is in django and the translations are rendered via django trans tags — Emil A.

I think you should mention something how you are using django in your question. — Bradley Trager

Have a $scope.$watch for selectedLanguage and call the submit function whenever it changes.

Edit

In case you want to do form submit

you can use angular.element.find to find your form. ( But im not sure why you need angular in case you are making a form submit)

That's what ng-change does right now. I'd like to know how to make a reference to the form which is inside the controller to submit it manually, I cannot make an ajax call in this case.
