You will find the extended example here:

My advice, from what I have seen so far debuging the other people examples, is to:
1. be carefull with copy-paste and before you do it, think of replacing the given item , table and procedure names with your own,
2. test your on-demand processes in the SQL workshop first, to see if they run,
3. avoid multiplying your code through copy-paste. This makes it much easier to debug and
4. if you have no experience with a similar solution, try to reduce your scope and do it on a simple example first. Try using emp, dept tables like I do it in my Demo Application.
Enjoy.

Great post! Thanks for the tips regarding setting up and implementing this!
Quick follow-up. How do you apply this to checkboxes? I went through the example (which worked perfectly by the way), and tried to change up some stuff to get it to work with a checkbox item, but it's only updating the selectlists and not the checkbox item.
hi i cannot do it for mine. Itdoes not populate the 2nd list
In this blog, I also mention the tipps on how to debug the processes. I can't do anything if you just give me "it doesn't work".

Thanks for this post, very useful!
Works a treat in Firefox, but I have problems with IE7 (and 8 too, I think - the error I get is "Object needed" or something like that): does it work for you or should the Javascript code be tweaked somehow? I'm really not an expert in this kind of things...
Regards.
I just tested it and it works in IE8 as expected. Do you have problems with my example or with your own?

Hi and thanks for your reply.
I had problems with my code (it's not easy for me to test IE because I'm on Linux ;) ).
Anyway, I think I found the culprit: it turned out that IE7/8 throws that error if the Application Processes return a blank option (had to add some additional spaces otherwise my html code wouldn't be accepted, sorry):
< option value=" " > < /option >
Replacing that with
< option value="-" >- < /option >
seems to fix the issue. Whew!
Thanks for your support.
