I need to add vb code that will add a new drop down list on a link / button click
I have an asp website where I have a drop down box which is connected to a sql database. All the options displayed in drop down are the records from the database. The problem is you can't have multiple options in a drop drop box which we really need here. I want to create a button or link (next to drop down box) which will add another drop down and let the user pick another option from the same database and will keep adding a drop down box until the user is done selecting items. Any thoughts on what code to use and how? I am using VB Studio 2005 for this!

Javascript should be fine but I am actually looking for something which will let me select more than one record from the same table.
Example:
Table A has different records like IN, IL, CA, MA, AZ etc.. If the user selects IL and then he also want to select IN, what would be the best way to approach it?

Here is an example of a nested combo whose values change once you select something to the next option you should select:

Here is an example of multiple combo boxes where the values of the next combo that gets enabled depend on the values of the previous. Basically its simple filtering of the data.
