Populate a popup window with clickable records from an Access DB and upon clicking, populate a selec

[Enjoy Life]

We have an ASP site that hits up an Access database of categories of
products and products. (e.g. Categories = Napkins, Tablecloths;
Products = 20x20 Napkins, 21x21 Napkins, 54x54 Tablecloths, 60x60
Tablecloths)

We currently have select boxes that when you select a category, it
populates the next select box with the proper list of products (i.e. I
select Napkins as a category, I get a listing of the Napkins)

We would like to put a clickable link before each of these select
boxes that would pull up a pop up with links from the records from the
proper table. (e.g. I click the categories link and a popup with html
anchor tags of Napkins and Tablecloths appear) I click on the Napkins
anchor and it populates the Categories Select box with Categories and
Napkins being selected.

Thanks in advance.

This is not relevant to ASP, which is server-side code, so you are unlikely
to get much response in this newsgroup. Popup windows require client-side
code, which you can ask about in .scripting.jscript.

PS. Try to make your subject line more concise. It never helps to ask your
entire question in the subject line.

That is the longest subject line I have ever seen. I had to open the
message in a new window and maximize it to read it all.
The subject is a summary. The body is used for the message.
