dynamic pull down menu
 

I have a form using the onchange event that calls a JavaScript function
which also uses VBScript to pull data from a database to populate a drop
down menu.

(I have a Medical Specialty drop down menu and a Special Interests drop
down menu. When a user chooses a specialty the special interest menu is
populated with interests related to that specialty)

The problem is loading the page. There is a lot of data coming from the
database. With the JavaScript the page is 452011 bytes! Is there a way
to cut down the load time by passing the info to an ASP page that can
pull all the data from the database and then return back to my original
page with the newly populated drop down menu without submitting the
form? Please help!
