chiprivers Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I want to be able to create a form containing two drop down select boxes where the options in the second dropdown are dependent on the selection made in the first drop down. I can see that this is quite a common query but I want to be able to do this without reloading the page or using AJAX or similar. I understand that this should be possible by loading all the required options into a set of arrays or one multidimensional array and populate the second dropdown using javascript. I have googled and googled but keep coming up with methods that are not suitable, please could somebody walk me through the basics or direct me to a tutorial that will show mehow to do this using purely javascript?

phpQuestioner Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 what your wanting is a "chained select menu" try this search and look through these results and see if any will work for you. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=AJAX+Chained+Select+Menu&spell=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
