I am sorry, the attachments were lost on this last email for some reason.  I 
will try again.  I hope the attachments are there.  They should be box.html 
and box2.html  They may appear at the bottom of this email depending on your 
email provider.

>>Hey all,
>>
>>i am still relatively new to javascripting.  There has to be a way to do
>>what i want, i just cant figure it out, so im truing to you guys...I want
>>to
>>have 2 selection lists on my page, one of which is the "father" list and
>>the
>>other is the "child" list.
>>
>>When a user would select one choice from the first list (father list) the
>>script would populate the options for the child list based on the first
>>lists's choice.  For example, I have A, B, C, and D in the first list and
>>the second list is disabled (i have the code for that all taken care of)
>>until one of those A, B, C or D choices is made.  Lets say B is chosen.
>>After B is chose, Cat and Dog show up in the child list.  Or, I choose D
>>from the father list and then Snake and Rabbit show up in the "child" 
>>list.
>>
>>Note:  This is just an example of how to do this...i mainly just want to
>>have control over making the user select a choce form the father list, and
>>then haveing a child list enabled with the contents of that child list
>>specific to what was chosen in the father list.  Anyway to do this would 
>>be
>>fine...
>>
>>ALSO...VERY IMPORTANT...this application is being developed for use with
>>Pocket PC's, which means Internet Explorer CE, which in turn means, NO
>>Dynamic functions or DHTML supported...i wish i could use it, but i cant!
>>any way to do this???
>>
>>
>>Thanks in advance for the help.
