    I've got a new client I'm working with who's dead set on eliminating postbacks at the expense if my sanity. One of their forms has 4 drop down lists, all related. My original design had a onchange postback to update the related lists with appropriate choices. Simple and easy to understand/maintain, but not the customer experience they want. Here's a brief example: List 1. Available Service Periods List 2. Available Service Locations - Changes based on period availability. List 3. Available Service Types - Changes based on location List 4. Available Services - Changes based on selected type I can't seem to come up with a javascript scheme to represent this relationship, update all the select lists and also have it available on the server side during postback to save the user selections. Anyone solved anything like this, and have a suggestion?
