I got it working with the exception that the second drop-down box shows values but they are not selectable. What am I doing wrong? I’ve compared your working source code with mine and I cannot see a difference.

Thanks for this code. Had to modify it to get it working, in particular;

* Change the line:
if (msg != ”)
-> to be:
if (msg != “”)
=>and correct the same problem in the line that has the .html(“)

* When I did a cut & paste the single quote characters you are using have to be changed to ordinary ones ie: ‘

I solved it. I am posting this simple solution here if anyone else needs it.

This will send a numeric value instead of the label.

$i = 0;

if (isset($_POST['data']) and in_array($_POST['data'], $expectedValues)){
$selectedArr = $selectionArr[$_POST['data']];

foreach($selectedArr as $optionValue){

echo ” . $optionValue . ”;
$i++;
}
}
