[Satan]

I fixed your nasty ass code so at least now test_id is receiving the selected option. I don't really know what you want for the "second part"... you're gonna have to explain it better if you want more help.

Code:

<html> <script> function test() { var test_id = escape(document.getElementById('test_id').value); alert(test_id); return false; } </script> <form onsubmit="test()"> <select id="test_id"> <option value="1">1</option> <option value="2">2</option> </select> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"> </form> </html>

He means if 1 is selected, then it gives options 1a 1b, I think.

E.g.



Though, I don't know for sure, so maybe not. He wasn't very clear on that.
