Without going into coding detail, here is (my) theory: assuming you are on CF8, you can easily use cfselect data binding to make the two selects related.
Then you can use jQuery (or plain old JavaScript) to "toggle" the 2nd select so that it is only visible when something from the first select is selected. Or better yet, enforce the related dropdown logic with jQuery as well.
