Hi,

 

I tried your code and you need to add one more query for getting the current selected Contact to show the phone number.

And assign the phone number of that contact to the variable cphone.

 

Try the following. you will get the desired output.

 

public with sharing class PickList_cls {
    public String cphone { get; set; } //to be declared
    public Contact objb {get; set;}
    public string Cname {get; set;}
    public string Aname {get; set;}
    public list<SelectOption> options{get; set;}
    public list<selectoption> conNames {get; set;}
    public PickList_cls (){
    objb = new contact();
    options = new List<Selectoption>();
    options.add(new selectoption('--None--','--None--'));
    //for(Account a: [Select id, name, (select id,name from Contacts) from Account order by name]){
    for(Account a: [Select id, name from Account order by name]){
      options.add(new selectOption(a.Id,a.name));
      }
      conNames = new list<selectoption>();
  }
  public void dochange(){
      conNames.clear();
      conNames.add(new selectoption('Select','Select'));
      for(Contact c:[select id,name from Contact where AccountId=:Aname order by name ])
          conNames.add(new selectoption(c.id,c.name));          
      }
    public pagereference Showcon(){

     //These two lines to be added
        Contact c = [select id,name, phone from contact where id=:Cname limit 1];
        cphone = c.phone;
        return null;    
    }
    
}

 

 

Hope so this helps you...!
