Can this be done ?

[byebyecharlie]

Hi all, need some guidance here, need to know if this is achievable.

During the process of filling out a 'sign-up' form, I want users to enter their zip code. Based on the zip code they entered, the next two fields (town and state) are automatically populated (I'm thkining java-script, but not sure). In the case of TOWN it may be a drop-down list with two or three town options, but the list is populated based on the corresponding zip code.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Kinda sorta -- it's definitely a javascript question and not a PHP question. If you want it to do it, on the spot in that same page, you're going to have to have a list with every single town and state in America inside of your HTML/Javascript (hope you're not serving Canada/Europe ;p).

Auto-populating the state based on ZIP would be a bit more managable. If you wanted the minor inconvenience of having them 'submit' their ZIP, you could then reference your database and attempt to pull the information you're looking for.
