how to select category from multiple dropdowns
On the add_form template:
How can I split up the category select to multiple selections? If you choose a category in AJAX-mode you need to choose a sub-category from the same dropdown. Does anyone know what I can do to split up these drowdowns so when a user choose the first category then a second select-box appears, and so on?

Do you want to have multiple selection list, I mean multiple categories more than 3?
I don't think it is possible.

I think I have solution if you need something like multiple categories. See this url, it is my work for other client.
Notice in left sidebar, there is something like category: shared, vps, dedicated, etc.Code:http://www.dodyrw.com/custom/cpanel/
But actually they are not category. It is something tricky. I only use one category that is hidden for all listing. See the submit url, no category as well. But with custom field that has selection for shared, vps, dedicated, etc. This can be accomplished.
The trick to construct something like category is by using custom fields and the listing page is constructed from advanced search.

ok, I think you misunderstoud my question hehe. THis is not what I ment. Great site though!
I'll try to explain better:
in the add_form.html template-file there is a <%$category%>. This shows a selectbox with the categories.
Problem:
I have activated the Ajax-category view. When a user choose a category they choose the first category but not a sub-category. This because they dont understand that the dropdown-seceltionbox loads after you have chosen the first category.
Solution:
When a user shoose a category I want to display another <select> with the subcategory, istead of choosing sudcategory in the same <select>-box.
Sorry for my bad english

It should be done with writing custom code. You can email me at support@nicecoder.com for custom work.
