[S2] 2 Select Boxes, one based on the other

[Skip Hollowell <sk...@skipdaddy.com>]

I apologize profusely for what has got to be a FAQ, but I can't find 
reference to this at all, either Googling or in my message archives.

I have the classic problem of 2 select boxes, and the values of the 
second select will change based upon the choice in the first box.  I am 
using a simple theme at the present time, and have no immediate plans to 
move to anything AJAX related for this release.

I have seen ComboBox and AutoComplete, but these don't seem to come 
close to what is needed.  IS there a Struts 2 based way to do this, or 
am I back to JavaScript?

Thanks for any help, and again, I very much apologize for posting what 
must be a very basic question.

Indeed there is no way without Javascript. The s2 tag Skip is searching 
for is

Any solution has to be javascript based. The question is wether you want a
server side visit or not. And that is dependant on how much data variability
there is in your second select list.

In our case if there are only a limited number of variations we download
them all as part of the initial page and use pure javascript, but if there
lots then we employ a simple ajax call.
