If I am understanding you correctly, drop down 2 is dependant on what drop down 1 is. If this is the case, you need to use Javascript (AJAX) in conjunction with a server side language for running all your queries.

Yep, Ajax is the way to go here. The other approach of loading three Javascript arrays when the page loads and playing around with them using javascript also works but is dirtier and does not reflect real time changes of data in the database.
F ny one knows a reference to this kind of a problem(i.e dependent drop down lists+ajax)pls reply .thnx

You've already been pointed in the right direction. any Ajax tutorial will show you how it's done. All it takes is a little bit of reading*. If you get stuck with some code then you can post in the Javascript/Ajax forum

I know it is recommended to put everything into database, but we want

Hi there
I have a option, select drop down list which a user can open. My page
however refreshes very frequently and when this occurs the selected
drop down list will pop back up. The user then has to open the drop
down list again.
I just wondered if there was a way using javascript to firstly detect
if the user has selected the drop down list and if so, on refresh to
set that drop down list to stay dropped down?
