I'm not sure what the correct terminology is, so I don't know how to find information on how to do this. 🙂 (nor whether "Rich Forms" is the appropriate forum -- I guessed blindly -- apologies if incorrect)

I would like to offer a series of drop-down boxes, such that when you select a value in the first one, it populates the second appropriately, and a selection in the second one populates the third, etc.

For example, "Make of Car" (Chevy, Ford, Honda), choose Honda then "Model of Car?" would display (CR-V, Civic, Pilot, Ridgeline), etc.

I see this EVERYWHERE, and would love to learn how to code it!! Thanks in advance!

    The term you are looking for is called related selects. The code is written in javascript for html forms and actionscript in flash forms.

    If you google "xxxscript related selects" you will probably find code samples for two boxes only. That will get you started.
