Hi All,

I did find several Javascript-based sets of code, but knew I need something
where the JS controls the element but had no 'static' variables or arrays .
One of them has Javascript refresh the page, and another keeps the
visibility off of secondary listboxes until the primary one is selected. I
think I will try this one as the <options> can be populated with PHP, then
the Javascript/CSS controls when they appear. I did this with a cascading
menu - where the JS/CSS only controlled the element (byID) and it worked
fine. If this works out, I will post the final code here.

Thanks,
Christina
