I have a form with 2 drop-down menus. One has a start date, and the other an end date, pulling the date filed from the same table. Once a start date is selected, is there anyway of forcing the second drop-down to display the dates => the startdate?

Not strictly from PHP.

PHP runs on the server, not the client. To get automatic updating to happen on user events on the web browser, you must use client-side scripting.

That client-side script could invoke the PHP script from the server.

You could download all the dates and hold them in javascript and show only the appropriate one. Can you calculate the end date from the start date ?
