problem showing sub-categories

[lukeurtnowski]

OK, here's what i've done (or am trying to do) (-deep breath-)
I have A Category table and a Subcategory table, I have a CatName field (Category table) and I populate a combo box with it. After a specific category is chosen, I want another combo box to appear with a list of all the names of that sub-category. Then upon choosing one of those, go to its page? Any Ideas..If anyone was to know it would be someone here. Thanks. Do you want to see my code?

this question gets asked over and over

Choices:
1) submit your form every time a choice is made and rebuild the page based on values already set
2) use php to build javascript arrays and use javascript to reset the dropdowns.
3) use hidden iframes to query the data and rebuild but while this is faster than 1) it may lead to some confusion.

good luck

I think I will try the 1st way with javascript to reload the pages once a selection is made, do you know of any online examples to help me on this, thanks.
