Dynamically filling in a 3rd value in select pulldowns depending on whats entered in the first 2

[J. Muenchbourg]

I have 3 select pulldown boxes where a user will select a year (either
2002 or 2001), a week (one thru 52), and a database (short data or long
data). But if a user selects a week that is less than 4, the 3rd select
pulldown will only show the choice of "short data", as they will not be
able to select "long data". Is it dynamically possible in javascript to
program a third pull down in this fashion?

thx
Muench

A general year requires up to 53 weeks, though 2001 & 2002 do not.

The third pulldown can be adjusted in a manner similar to that used in
