Create multi-level (tiered) select / list / drop down boxes

[BillyRayPreachersSon]

This is something that is asked a lot, and there isn't much in the FAQ area covering it exactly... so I've written an FAQ showing how to do this:

How do I create multi-level select / list / drop down boxes?

faq216-6294

Note: There are many different ways this could be achieved other than switch statements. I could have used nested arrays, objects... so many other methods. So if the method shown isn't right for you, there are others you can consider.

Hope this helps,
