  Auto Populating Lists  EthanC at 08:47 on Wednesday, May 13, 2009
 

Hi All,

I am new to JAva and having a few problems. I have found a script that makes auto populated lists but I wanted to know how I change the last list to a text box? So the details that would normaly be in the last list actualy show in a text box as content not as a list.... Can anyone help?

Here is the code:

<form name=myChoices>
<table align="center">
<tr>
<td>
<SELECT id=firstChoice name=firstChoice onchange="selectChange(this, myChoices.secondChoice, arrItems1, arrItemsGrp1);">
<option value=0 SELECTED>[SELECT]</option>
<option value=1>Land</option>
<option value=2>Sea</option>
<option value=3>Air</option>

</SELECT>
</TD><TD>
<SELECT id=secondChoice name=secondChoice onchange="selectChange(this, myChoices.thirdChoice, arrItems2, arrItemsGrp2);">
</SELECT>
<SELECT id=thirdChoice name=thirdChoice>
</SELECT>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</form>


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
