javascript - Display and filter sql table without reloading page with PHP

one text

I have an sql table which is displayed in PHP and can also be filtered with a dropdown. The only problem is when I filter the table, the form reloads the page so some other functions on the page reset. So I need to filter the table without the form reloading the page so everything else stays the same and works.

I have tried "onSubmit="return false;", but that stops the whole form working.

Is there any other ways to stop it reloading, preferably with jquery or ajax.

Thanks

        function __construct() {
        $this->conn = $this->connectDB();
    }   
    function connectDB() {
        $conn = mysqli_connect($this->host,$this->user,$this->password,$this->database);
