Dynamically populating second dropdown from first dropdown, same page

[fusionaire]

I need to dynamically populate a second dropdown menu based on what the user selected in the first dropdown. The issue is that these dropdowns have to remain on the same page, and I can't refresh the page as it is a large data-entry form. I think I may need to use an array, but I have little experience with using them. Any and all help is welcome.

This is actually a JavaScript issue if you want this to happen on the same page without the page reloading. You do create arrays, but in JS.

Here's an example of this:
