hi,

i've googled around, and have only found one posting on this.

i have a simple form on my web site for which i would like to have a combo
box the user can select from a list of countries, or better yet, region then
country. this must have been done hundreds of times, but i found no help in
my Front Page 2003 help file, or google searching.

the one posting i found uses DHTML form script. is this something i can
use?

thanks!

Don't you think you would be a better judge of that? Especially since you've
seen it, and noone else has.

If I was trying to do a hybrid like this, I would use FP to create a
small combo box field to get the code in the page. Then, go to the
site where you found the country list, borrow the html form code
_only_ and plug it into the HTML in FP to get he country list w/o
typing it all by hand.

Whether or not the data will go where you want is another
question related to the rest of your d/b & script design.
 
thanks jimmy!

Take a look at J-Bots, http://www.websunlimited.com, I believe they have a
component that will handle what you are looking for, as it requires
JavaScript.
