Do you mean that you would make round trips to the server (and database) to
populate the different frames based on selections made to the higher order
frames?
Some folks here contend that round trips to the server should always be
avoided if possible. I'm not sure that is always necessary - do you?
Thanks,
Dave

maybe four frames with a select box in each. Through javascript you can
reset the location of each frame sending the conditions with the href.

Subject: Strategies for dependent multiple selectors on a single page
Situation:
Single web page. User is presented with a select box, and based on the
selection made there, a second box is populated, and then possibly a third.
I have some code from a previous project where the servlet runs three select
statements, and constructs JavaScript with the data organized in
multidimensional JS arrays. This gives the user the ability to run cascading
"queries" client side.
This works, but is kind of ugly. Does anyone have a better way outside of
applets?
Thanks,
Dave
