Update content without page refresh?

[senelson1]

I'm not sure this can be done without javascript but it doesn't hurt to ask. I
want to be able to update content on a non-frames page within a table, without
reloading the page. Example: On a product page for a T-shirt, there would be
an area on the page with a drop-down menu to select the size. Once size has
been selected another menu appears to select the color, etc... without
reloading the page after each choice selection. Amazon.com uses javascript to
do this but I'd like to stick to CFML as much as possible. Am I wasting my
time? Thanks in advance, Scott

CF is a server side scripting language, so the only way for CF to do anything
is to pass information from the browser back to the server. That, of course,
constitutes a reload. To modify the data on the page without reloading, you
will need to use a client side language. The Javascript for what you want to
do is actually not all that complicated, so you may want to try doing a google
search and see what you come up with.
