About menu in the form

[Geminist]

Hi,need your help!
Suppose there are two menu lists in a form called A and B.How can I get this?When I select an item in A,a query is submitted to mysql and the result is displayed in B?

Can you please be more specific? A form is submitted via POST or GET and the data is available as an array on the new page.

Or do you want to be more dynamic? With javascript or so?
Everytime A is changed you want to query the database? mcvdmvs

I want to show a dynamic page.Every time A is changed,database is queried and B is changed.All happen without form actions.

You can't.

PHP run server side so, if you want to change B according to A, you must do a refresh, or, fill B with Javascript. Javascript is a client side language.

To do a fill with JS, you must load everything in B to the JS, and then, when you pick the value from A, you fill B with the data you already got from the load of the page. That's not a good policy. The best way is changing A, you do a form submit and then you fill B.
