Dynamically Switch Forms Based on Drop-Down

[rsmith]

Hey all, first off an apology if this isn't in the right forum but since it's a mix of technologies I put it here. Move if necessary.

What I have is PHP generating some forms based on criteria pulled from a database. What I need to do is then determine which form to display based on what selection a user makes from a drop down list. I don't necessarily want to use DIVs because you can view the source and see them so I'm assuming that it will be a JavaScript solution but whatever the most efficient way is works for me.

Basically a user answers a question such as "What do you need assistance with?" and based on their answer from the drop down list, the corresponding form is displayed.

Suggestions? Thgouths? All much appreciated.

TIA.

Ryan

Why does that matter? Anything you display on the web can be viewed/saved however the user wishes.

As far as the title of the topic, I'd suggest looking into using AJAX in a function attached to the "onchange" attribute of the dropdown; basically you'd be making a request to a PHP script that will return the appropriate HTML for the form corresponding to the value of the dropdown.

Thanks brad. I will research it further using your advice.
