THis is slightly how one of the custome tags on dev exchange works if I recall. One caution though, and this may or may not be a concern, this method is bandwidth intense, as opposed to other methods. Normally I wouldn't make a point of it except in my work place bandwidth is a BIG concern and this method is a bad solution for us, for most it is perfectably acceptable. At my old workplace we put each select in a hidden div, and unhid the proper div upon selection, worked on all browsers like a champ, ate up bandwidth though :)
