when you use {{ $something }}, it's translated to <?php echo $something; ?>, review this in your code,

also, dont use $_GET['prop'], use Input::get( 'prop' )

If you use $_GET for Input::get(), then how to use for $_POST ?

if you use the following it will check both $_POST and $_GET

Request::get('something')

I am pretty sure that Input::get() will check both $_POST and $_GET.

I tried this.

I did this way

@foreach($ranges as $range)
    <option {{{ (Input::old('no_of_person')== $range)? 'selected="selected"' :'' }}}  value="{{ $range }}">{{ $range }}         </option>
@endforeach`

and get the values to the controller as

Input::get('no_of_person')
