Hello
you can use json_encode() mathod to encode array in javascript array. after getting responceText you can create javascript array by eval() mathod. This way is much more easy to interchange complex string thru ajax.

Thanks for the code Sachin. Can you indicate how you would associate a unique go-to url with each city option, and what functionality would be used to launch the city page url selected. It would all be for navigation within the same site Thanks much!

I like the code, i have been searching all morning for a dropdown list of just states, when selected redirects to a new page or dynamically writes content after state is selected. Anything along these lines in the works?

You can associate an onchange event on the city drop down and redirect the user accordingly, on the basis of the selected city

$data here is just an array, making database connection, fetching from the database and storing it in array depends upon how you write the underneath code.

Thanks for the example, it is working fine. I need to write a similar code but with jsp instead of php. The problem is, the city names are to be fetched from the database and the depending upon the state selected it should flow in dropdown.
also, i have a text field for the state entry and even when i enter a partial city name the cities should flow automatically.
can you help?

THANK YOU!! I found a few other examples first and could not get what I needed (they were all using country as well).

This worked like a charm!
