Dynamic Select List via Radio Button Click

[bgauthier]

Greetings Everyone,

I have a unique array (three arrays) associated to each of three radio buttons. I want the associated array (based on a radio onclick) to appear in a select list.

I understand how to convert my array into a select list.

I do not understand how to make this happen without submitting the page to the server.

Is it possible?

I hear rumors that it is possible using JavaScript - but if there is a way with just PHP, HTM and some brains, I would be more happy.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

the rumors ar correct =)

PHP excecutes on the server-side, so it is impossible for any php to process unless it is sent to the server.

javascript works because it processes on the client.

How do we do this using JavaScript and PHP to draw some data from say a DB table?

E.g. User has made his choice of radio buttons.

Next, the "Select list" will display only those from the field that matched month=='January' from a table called 'Details'..Any code to help out??

Thanx guys!!
