Hi,

i am looking for a ASP VB script for the following problem:

i have 3 databases with categories. A form on my website should show 3 drop down menus. The user selects category 1, and the value of category 2 drop down box gets updated with new values. same happens after the user select cat 2 box - the 3rd box gets updated with new values.

can you provide me with a sample script, two boxes in the sample would be enough. would just need VB script.

Thanks, Mark

Hi smarks,

I used javascript to create this, here is some simple example:

<script language="javascript">
<!--
    function chooseVehicle() {
        chooseMerk = document.frmlist.optmerk.options[document.frmlist.optmerk.options.selectedIndex].value;
        switch (chooseMerk) {
            case '#' : isi = 'Pilih Model';
            isival = '#';break;

<-- put your ASP code here -->

            case '1' : isi = 'Pilih Model,A3,A4,A6,Allroad Quatro,TT';
            isival = '#,1,2,3,4,5';break;
