the weather may be spring like, but in the autumn the day light diminishes each day = go to sleep my little bulby friend
when the day light increases in spring = time to wakey wakey, what ever the weather is

..cheers, though not sure how they know it’s light when they live underground.

Ok so I have a database/table with these columns: ID, 1st name, 2nd, state, sex. I want to create a filter and display the filtered results, so atm I have 1 drop down menu which you can select whether to filter by state/sex. I then want to use the result of this to fill a second dropdown with the relevant states etc to filter by.

I am sure I've watched a tutorial on this a while ago, but I've watched so many since I can't find it, and the ones I can't find aren't directly relevant, and I can make what they show fit my need.

Did you get to the bottom of this mate?

I dug some of my old stuff out, but unfortunately this wasn't specifically one of the many pains I went through when trying to hack my way through PHP.

My instincts tell me you need to repost the page after the first drop-down select action to trigger an SQL query based on that value to get and populate the second dropdown.

<select onchange='this.form.submit()' name='yourvalue'> seems like part of what you need

yourvalue being the value in your first dropdown

<option value=>$result[the query to populate the dropdown, not sure how to return a list!]</option>

I haven’t got a clue what any of that meant , but I’m sure it made sense to some people
