darwin_tech Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Hi there, I have a php project with a series of dynamically generated menus from a mysql database. I have two menus, Island Group and Island where the former should dictate the latter. When an option is selected in Island Group, I only want to populate the subsequent Island menu with islands in that group, without having to refresh the page. I am really not sure how to approach this, though I know that some javascript is required. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

Adam Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 How much data are we talking? If it's a small amount I'd store the islands in an array; the key being the value of the group. When the option is selected, just populate the islands select box using that array. If there's a large amount of data though I'd consider taking an AJAX approach, to dynamically load the islands as you select the group.
