Allowing the client to Add info to a Dropdown

[timcadieux]

Hey, im wondering how you folkz handle this. I have a dropdown of info, but if the client has new info that should go in that filed, do you give them a new form to fill in, then refresh thier original form, or is there a way to allow them to add something to that field directly and then add it to a db?

you would need to give the user a textbox and submit button to add a new entry. Submit button would send info to an ASP script to add the entry to the database. Redirect back to original page and repopulate the dropdown from the newly updated database.
