Some ways to do a dependent list box are the following:
1) Reload a self-posting form (advantage: clean and fairly easy,
disadvantage: form has to reload).
2) Send all the data down to the form and let JavaScript do the work
(disadvantage: sends all the data to the form).
3) Remote scripting (disadvantage: may have security risks).
4) Hidden frames (disadvantage: complicated).

As for myself I like to keep it simple and just let the page post to
itself and then show the info in the 2nd list box based on the posted
value from the first.
