Well . . . I thought of that, but the folks this app is for don't like that.  They 
think it "tries to fool" the user and confuses
them as to why they did not get the choices they asked for.  But I don't know if I can 
do anything else.  I'd like to do some kind
of "blur" on the unavailable elements when the one above is clicked on.  But, being 
the JSDummy I am, I don't know if this is
do-able.

You can parse the selections in JavaScript, just as you would in CF.

You can't really "lock out" other selections... just detect that they
happened and take some action:

    ignore them
    alert

If you have selection options that are interdependent, you may be
better served by using something like two selects related from the
tag gallery
