Thanks, Rick, for your reply. I too will be watching the list for options, and looking forward to finding a good solution.
Thanks again!

I've been using the jQuery javascript library a lot in the last your and it's great to work with. I code a lot of AJAX into my web interfaces now. Good stuff. I haven't used jQuery to create multiple dependent dropdowns, so I don't have any code readily available. I'm sure some others will chime in on the list with some solutions for you, perhaps using ColdFusion's own built-in functionality. If no one steps up with a solution, I'd be glad to work one up for you. I'll be watching the list to see what comes your way. And yes, it is possible to create as many dependent selects as you desire. Rick -----Original Message----- From: Martin, Donna M [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, July 25, 2010 9:21 PM To: cf-newbie Subject: Two dropdown's - Second populated by the first Good evening, all, This may not be directly linked with ColdFusion, but am really needing advice on this one... I will be populating a dropdown list with CF from an SQL database. I need for a second dropdown to be populated based on the selection in the first dropdown--without refreshing the page. Is the best way to do this with Javascript? If so, do any of you have some sample code? I'm not as familiar with Javascript as I should be. Also, do you think it would be possible to use the same code to have a third dropdown populated by the selection on the second? One more question: I'm thinking of purchasing a book to help fill in the gigantic 'black hole' in my knowledge base regarding Javascript...Any suggestions as to title/author? I appreciate any advice you might have on this... Many thanks, Donna PS - I enjoy this list although I'm mostly a silent observer. This time, I'm really needing help, and will be most grateful for any assistance you can offer. ________________________________ This e-mail message (including any attachments) is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
