[Catalyst] Html::Proptotype

[Stephen Keenan]

Have a look at CGI::Ajax. I've used it in similar way to what you are 
seeking (although not in catalyst) You can pass the value from a 
popup-select back to a perl method that does a CDBI fetch, builds the 
html dropdowns and returns that to the div. It's incredibly easy to use.

The /scripts directory in the cgiajax tarball have plenty of examples. I 
think I even saw a sample on how to do chained dropdown selects, which 
is what I think you are after.
