hey,

i want to have 2 html select boxes and be able to do a search to a sql database depending on the two selections.

is there now an easier way todo this? thanks

Easier than what? ;) Seems very straightforward and common to me. It really isn't very difficult. You parse the posted form values, validate the entries, build your query statement and execute.

I hope that last post didn't come across harsh, I certainly didn't intend it that way. I would confirm you here. I don't know how else you might accomplish that goal except as stated earlier. Should be easier though since you've done it before, right? Let us know if you come up with a better mousetrap though ;-)
