Javascript is your way to do this, but there are obviously a few ways you can do that aswell. You don't want to have to submit a form and reload images/pages etc, so javascript is the only way to go (or dhtml or other stuff)
One way to do this is either with layers (hide/unhide depending on what need) and all the information is already printed to the page, but shows only the needed information. Another way is to create javascript arrays and let javascript do the selections and stuff... I've seen a few tutorials around that do that... Here are some links that might help you: This is for dreamweaver and ASP but same principal (and explains how it works aswell) http://www.macromedia.com/support/ultradev/ts/documents/client_dynamic_listb ox.htm This is something similar, and also cool... http://javascript.internet.com/forms/auto-drop-down.html This is a basically what you want... but you might have to modify it a little bit... http://javascript.internet.com/forms/category-selection.html So you get PHP to fill the javascript array by something like this, knowing that I am no genius in javascript (as long as you have values in $array): <head> <script langauage="Javascript"> <!-- function start(){ var something = new Array(); <?php for ($i=0;$i<count($array);$i++){ echo "javascript array stuff -- $array[$i]"; } ?> // now the other javascript code (additional lists etc) } and then thats it!!!!!
