Hi Greg,
Yes, sorry if I missed the 'if not reloading the page is a requirement"...
I can reload the page as many times I need since the queries are extensive but
fast, so the server, and this runs on an intranet.
I'm working right now to get this to work with some ideas provided from this
list, but if you've coded this before would be more thank appreciated.
Thanks a lot man!
Francisco

That someone, being me, also justified the statement with "if not
reloading the page is a requirement".
If you can reload the page after each option is selected then you don't
even have to use javascript. When I coded one of these a couple years
back it was in the spec that the page would not reload.
In addition, a single select costs less than multiple selects with where
clauses.
Good luck.. however you decide to code it.
