Hey Rick, thanks for the reply. That sounds like a solution, but I know nothing 
at all about Ajax or javascript. I was hoping for a tutorial for this. I saw a 
search feature on a website and it looked exactly like what I needed. I cant 
find that site now! lol Anyway, When someone performs a search on my site, 
which is still in development, they have a table with the results in it. I want 
those results to then populate the dropdown lists so the user can then narrow 
the results down even further. Like I said I dont know how to save the user 
defined results in the table in order to populate the dropdown lists. If there 
is a tutorial for this specific I would love to find it.
