Need help with drop down menu

Post by nvcaine »

Is there any way of getting the information from a HTML form, using PHP, without submitting the info ?
This is what I do:
1. I have a drop down menu in a HTML form with picture galleries
2. Using PHP I make a dynamic drop down menu with the pictures from the selected gallery (the index)
The problem is I don't know how to use the information from the HTML menu without submitting it.

Can anyone help ? Thanks.

Why does it matter? He can't get the info without submitting the form first anyway.

There are ways of getting the information without a formal submission. But maybe he wants to use the information on the page itself? The intension affects the answer.
