3 level combo box Dynamically

Ref: https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/21195901/3-level-combo-box-Dynamically.html

Seems to work fine with only numbers. Now I need one with the letters :( - anyone know what I need to change on this one

I need to make 3 level of Combo box

1st one there are three elements 1, 2, 3

If we select 1 then second combobox will enable and it should shows select choice 1.1, 1.2,1.3

If we select 2 then second combobox will enable and it should shows select choice 2.1, 2.2,2.3

If we select 3 then second combobox will enable and it should shows select choice 3.1, 3.2,3.3

If we select 1.1 then third combobox will enable and its should shows select choice 1.1.1, 1.1.2,1.1.3

If we select 1.2 then third combobox will enable and its should shows select choice 1.2.1, 1.2.2,1.2.3

If we select 1.3 then third combobox will enable and its should shows select choice 1.3.1, 1.3.2,1.3.3

Thanks!

Thanks - that looks close but I added
<select name = "mysel2">test1</select>
<select name = "mysel3">test2</select>
because the last drop down seems to be empty?
