Hi, anyone can help me to make this happen? field#1 dropdown list is group like (Fruit) and field#2 dropdown list is type of fruit. I have many pages kind of fruit and I want to select feild#1 dropdown list it show kind of field #2. I tried many time but it seem error while we select group field#1 again it only go to page.

I tried following code from peoeple here in validation field#2 in Run Custom validation script as following:

      Yep the script is running well if dropdown list field#2 is independent. Any idea make this dependency to dropdown list field#1? I tried make it denpendency but seem not working while I tried to click field#1 it going to page all time. In short, I can't select field#1.
