If the dropdown list B is changed, then dropdown list C should be updated. To get this done, I use a small javascript

    function reload(form)
    {  var val=form.B.options[form.B.options.selectedIndex].value;
       self.location='myForm.php?B=' + val ;
    }

called by <select id="B" name="B" onChange="reload(this.form);"> This works fine, BUT all other dropdown lists are also reset. So if I select another A, then another B, then also A is reset to its prior value. Any idea how I can refresh a specific dropdown, without affecting all the other dropdowns ?

Cor, That's a JavaScript issue, not a PHP issue, so it should really go to the proper list. However, at first glance, I'd say that you should call your specific element because, as you have it right now, you're resetting the whole form, which is causing all fields within said form to be reset in tandem. -- Daniel P.
