Dynamic Choice Lists in Forms

Question

What is the best way to accommodate dynamic dropdown lists for New & Edit Forms?

Example: User chooses an option in dropdown 1, which then triggers specific values in dropdown 2.

Surely I don't have to use the Client Object Model and Jquery?

Many thanks!

Answer 1

It can be done in InfoPath or using jQuery and the SPServices cascading dropdowns function.

Answer 2

A free downloadable plugin which uses jQuery and SPServices can be downloaded here: http://www.itidea.nl/index.php/cascading-dropdowns-with-jquery-and-spservices-on-a-page-or-webpart/
