OK well I've uses your idea but have come across a really irritating
problem.  Obviously this select is only on the 2nd page, but the error is
"the specified form object cannot be found" - why?  It's there, it's
specified, why can't it see it?!

I'm sorry I'm being so dumb..here's my code:

<cfquery name="County" datasource="localads"  >
SELECT county FROM locations
</cfquery>
<form name="area" method="post" action="categories2.cfm">
  <select name="area">
    <cfloop query="County">
      <option
value="<cfoutput>#County.county#</cfoutput>"><cfoutput>#County.county#</cfou
tput></option>
      </cfloop>
  </select>
  <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>

<cfquery name="category" datasource="localads"  >
SELECT * FROM categories WHERE id = 1
<cfif #form.area# is not "">
AND county is '#form.area#'
</cfif>


Seems fine to my eyes :(

TIA

Will
