Change option in second drop down box based on selection of first drop down box.

Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to make a selection in 1 dropbox that will
automatically fill in a second.
And then click submit button to put it in the database.

i have been told i can use javascript and hidden value...anyone know how to do
that? How do i put that value in the hidden value when it is different with
every selection?

thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I will study the information when I get home tonight.
This info is for ASP. Is that required? I have dreamweaver mx 7.01, coldfusion
mx developer server, microsoft access database....
I design for myself and am self taught. this template will help me track
clients that I see.

thanks again,

steve

This particular article was written around ASP, but I'm sure it could be
adapted to whatever technology you'd like. You could even write this as
static code if you wanted to instead of pulling items from a database as the
article describes.

Once you get the concept of what the article describes, it's pretty easily
adaptable. But the hard part is getting your head around how the thing
works as a whole.

Best regards,
Chris
