I endorse Aaron's view. I spent most part of a day trying to figure out the
javascript for doing this ( I really must spend time learning javascript!)
and after I had finally got it to work, I read a post here on CF-talk about
this CF_TwoSelectsRelated tag. The second page I did, using the tag, runs
faster and smoother than my javascript one, and took me half an hour to
build, rather than the day I spent on the first one that I'm still not
really happy with.
Also Nat has another version of the tag that handles more than two, so you
could have suburbs, cities and states if you wanted.
If you want to see the two versions and compare them for yourself, see the
hand-built javascript one at http://www.choice.com.au/calculators/ancap1.cfm
and the one using Nat's tag at
http://www.choice.com.au/calculators/usedcarsafety1.cfm (The second one
isn't finished yet - the results page doesn't give you any data yet, but the
tag works).
