This popular PHP forms generation and validation class has a linked select plug-in to do precisely that. http://www.phpclasses.org/formsgeneration The basic version use alternative groups of option values taken from arrays, but there are also variant versions of the plug-in that take options from database query results. Here is a live example of the version that uses arrays: http://www.meta-language.net/forms-examples.html?example=test_linked_select There is one variant that supports MySQL and two other variants that support many databases, including Oracle, using either the Metabase or PEAR::MDB2 database independent APIs. Here you may watch a tutorial video that explains about this and other plug-ins of this forms class: http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/video/1/package/1/section/plugin-linked-select.html -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP professionals looking for PHP jobs http://www.phpclasses.org/professionals/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/
