how would i go about this?

what i'm looking to do is have a drop down menu, where when an option is selected it displays a description elsewhere on the screen and opens up another drop down menu along side the first one, then i'd like the second one to do the same as the first and finally i'd like the third one to just display a description.

but i'm not sure how to do it? javascript? if so what's it called so i can look into it/a tut on it.

You can do it in both CSS and JavaScript but could you draw a quick diagram showing what you mean please.

so drop down 1 is either poetry or prose
down down 2 is for poetry
+ narrative
+ nature
+ romantic

but for prose it's
+ fiction
+ non-fiction

but that's not just it, if you select poetry in drop down one, i want it to display a description (that's in the description="" of the option) and i want that the same for each different menu, though to appear in different position for each menu

I believe theres someone on the channel (#tp) thats quite good with that sort of thing. But JavaScript would be used for here. It would be relatively simple.
