Jeff Garza and Mosh Teitelbaum picked up on the same point, jeff said.............. "I beleive that you have referenced the query wrong. Try: <cfoutput query="rsquery1" group="category">" I know what you are saying however, the query is linked to the output of the actual select shown below <option value="0">Select ATA Code <cfoutput query="rsATA1" group="category"> <option value="#ATA_Chapter#">#category# </cfoutput> If you look at my code you should see this...... Jerry Johnson said "<cfoutput> <cfset i = i + 1> ChapterArray#category#[#i#] = #category#; ChapterArrayVal#category#[#i#] = "#catno# #category#"; </cfoutput> </cfoutput>" why do you think I dont need this?? The code I am using is based on the code below , which works but I think they were using two tables I am only using one table?? From this you may be able to solve some of these problems??? ---------------------------ORIGINAL---------------------- <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Untitled</title> </head> <body> <!--- Select the ATA_Chapter, ATA_Section and title_Codes. ---> <cfquery name="rsquery1" datasource="ATA"> SELECT a.ata_chapter, a.ata_title, b.ata_section, b.ATA_TITLE SubTitle FROM ata_codes a, ata_sub_codes b WHERE a.ata_chapter = b.ata_chapter ORDER BY a.ata_chapter, b.ata_section </cfquery> <!--- Select all the sub codes. ---> <script language = "JavaScript"> <!-- // For each chapter, create an array to hold the sections. // Each chapter array will be identified by the ATA_Chapter <cfoutput query="rsATA1" group="ATA_Chapter"> // Create the array ChapterArray#ATA_Chapter# = new Array();
