I'm trying to change the search page on the fly i guess, I have a list/menu with dynamic data from a recordset, on selecting something from this menu I would like to change another menu on the same page without submitting is this possibly?

e.g. menu 1 user selects product - menu2 changes to show animals product can be used on and allows user to select, after which they can press submit to pull up instructions on the two critia selected.

Any particular language, or would you just like a solution for all of them?
;-)

For client side updating, you could use an AJAX solution. But if you're
pulling the menu info from a database, you're going back to the server
anyway, so maybe this is not the way to go.

HTH,
