First, I want to beat everyone to the punch in yelling at you.. "This is not a PHP question!!!
RTFM STFU NOOB" or something stupid like that. hah
But, maybe it seems like it COULD be a PHP question. And it's definitely relevant to PHP
development, so how about we give a REAL answer instead of just yelling. :)
Here's what I think..
1. onChange runs a JS function that checks the value of the SELECT that just changed
2. JS function then redirects to the same script but with scriptname.php?select=selectvalue
3. PHP reads the $_GET['select'] selectvalue and performs appropriate DB pull
Voila! (or viola if you're more musical than french)

Its been awhile since I tried this so I was wondering if anyone had
any luck with this.
I need to get a list of tables from a database, which means I have to
run a function, I would like to have an onChange event run when I
change my selection in a select menu, that would send the value for
the select menu to a php function.
can that be done?
