RE: [PHP] sample or tutorial for conditional pulldown menus

Yes, and you can do it all on one page; reloading as the choices are made and displaying a record of your previous choices. Miles At 10:19 AM 8/8/01 +0900, Maxim Maletsky wrote:

Stop searching, just make it on your own. have a model database : table models: id | make | model | submodel | year then do :

        select make from models group by make

below have the date range (can be static, since where it all began to the current year) then when make and year was selected :

        select model from models where make='$make' and year='$year' group

by model after this was selected do :

        select submodel from models where make='$make' and year='$year' and

model='$model' then check if found at least one row do the fourth pull down submodel menu, otherwise "give it a go" - load the page related to the current car. Use your fantasy to extend all this to suit your needs.

It's for an automotive parts supplier and they would like to build a search engine for different make, model, and year applications. Since a picture is worth a thousand words here's a url to see the site they would like to knock off; http://www.performanceproducts.com/shopper_profile.asp?mscssid=2K5UHTRR3UV28 MLG468UVDQR3F4T73P3 They like that you could choose a year and a make, which jumps to a new page with an additional pulldown menu for models associated with the selected year and make. Some models even ask for a submodel. It's pretty cool but it's in ASP and ssssllllllloooooooowwwwwww. I was checking out Hotscripts and Devshed but didn't have any luck. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
