form- 2 menus, 2nd changes upon 1st selection

[geiger]

hey guys for balingo.com the template is basically completed but theres some javascript code i need. i have one text field and then two menus. they MUST ALL BE IN ONE FORM.

the first menu will contain a list of "all of UK" or a country. upon selection of the country, the second menu will change to have the counties of that country. it would be best that when "all of UK" is selected, there isnt a second menu and when a country is selected, it appears- but that isnt required.

can anyone help me out?

okay i realized on the [1][1] part i accidentally put the first [number here] 1 twice. thats not the problem. it still doesnt work! help! i need it by tonight!

[geiger]

can someone please help?

[shane]

I looked at the code a few days ago and the only errors I found were with the array elements indexes (which you'd realised) and that the Colwyn Bay.. entry is missing an opening quote.

Fixing those and everything worked fine.

Sorry I didn't post geiger, but I figured you must have got it all sorted as you hadn't posted back.
