Multiple selection criteria/dropdowns to links

[skiller1234]

Hello folks - new here and trying to build a simple webpage on godaddy. Honestly rather lost - but I don't see how to do this thing

I need to have 2 drop down selections (I think I know how to make these and add selections, maybe)- the user picks 1 from each - and then a submit button to match those 2 results to a certain youtube video.


For example:
The first dropdown could have "Mom", and "Dad", and the second could have "kid1" and "kid2" - each combo would link to a different video after clicking the submit button (that would have those 2 people in it). I can't figure out how to essentially have a series of if/then statements based on the dropdown selections.



so like
if var1=Mom and var2=kid1 then youtubeurl=whatever1
if var1=Mom and var2=kid2 then youtubeurl=whatever2

etc.



any help would be super-appreciated!

When you say "simple webpage on godaddy", do you mean you are using their built-in page builder, or are you creating it from scratch with your own scripting?

To have a "chained menu selection", which is what I think you mean, this involves scripting, such as PHP.

Is this what you mean?

As for Godaddy - I could not find anything they offer pre-built to use like this - but I think you can add custom elements? I don't need to do it at godaddy - that's just where I grabbed the domain name. I haven't really investigated like squarespace and whoever else to see if they have these features..

I guess that example could work. Its not exactly what I had pictures in my head - which were two different dropdowns on the screen at once - with like a submit button underneath them.

Actually thinking about it - not sure that's quite it. As I want both dropdowns to contain all selections - not just a subset that changes based on the first choice. I would think that would make it easier.

It will still require server-side scripting to process the selections ... Example, using PHP with JQuery (AJAX)
