I'm working on a site which will have a very large taxonomy vocab.

It's a sport site and will have teams as vocab terms, and players as terms within the teams. With say 40 teams and say a dozen players on each team thats 480 terms.

When creating new content, is there any way to present these 480 terms as two selection boxes rather than one? ie

* a teams selection box
* a players selection box, which populates itself after the team has been selected.

Any thoughts will be most appreciated.

with my widget over here BUT:

  • Currently it runs of having ALL the options inlined as javascript on the page. I'll convert it to AJAX one day
  • The implimentation you see there is not closely tied in with Taxonomy. Something altogether different in fact
  • Mine looks more complicated than it should be because I support multiple optiongroups. this is Not needed for a basic taxonomy heirachy, but I was doing many-to-many set theory.

I know there are other requests and possibly even a few attempts out there. Keep searching.

The activeselect.module is probably what you're looking for.
