Hi:How can I make a Dynamic Dependent Drop Down lists? the easiest example is country/city drop down lists.If the user chooses a country then in the next drop down all the cities(or states) or the chosen country appear. Is it possible to make it in php/mysql?Please let me know how I can make such a thing.Thanks.Benign

I've never coded one myself before, but I believe that this will require javascript in addition to PHP coding if you want your drop-down lists to change without the user having to press submit. I imagine that if using JS was out of the question you could contain the form in an iFrame and refresh just that whenever you need to change the second drop-down options. Tutorials on creating them are fairly easy to find, you may also want to check out the Javascript forum on this site too. Hope it helps. :)

Look at this site, they have loads of menus, dropdown menus, click menus, hover menus, and slide menus. Besides, they have lots of other things too, lol.http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/For which browsers these codes are compatible with, is noticed next to the link :)[*Edit:]Oh sorry, I didn't see you were asking for in php :)
