To be clear, and forestall the "But that's not PHP!" response... > With javascriopt or force the user to click a submit button. ... that goes *back* to the server to load a PHP script. So your onChange="..." would have something that resulted in: .location="somefancymenuscript.php" in it. This would be incredibly inefficient and a really dumb way to do dynamic drop down menus unless you can guarantee high-bandwidth low-latency in an Intranet setting, and even then is probably not truly the BEST answer. Which, after you boil away 10,000 posts to the PHP list turns out to be: Use JavaScript. Go away. :-) :-) :-) -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
