Drop Down Menu Question....

I am building a website on the volusion platform and we sell automotive parts and I am trying to create a drop down menu that does the following...

There will be three drop down menus (Vehicle Make) (Vehicle Model) (Vehicle Year)

If someone clicks "Acura" in the first menu, then in the model dropdown, it should only return Acura models (not chevy models, and ford models etc...) the user selects Acura Integra, lastly only the models years 1990-1998 should be available (not 2010)

Here is an example of a vehicle selector just slightly down the page: http://www.carid.com/led-taillights.html

I am able to create the first menu with the appropriate options, but how do I get it to pull the models available for the particular make?

I am new to making menus like this so thank you for your help!

There is no way to create with HTML
See JavaScript examples or PHP/MySQL solutions.

A drop down menu can be built only with HTML and CSS (but it will not work on IE6 because this browser can't understand hover event on non-anchor element). An alternative solution is a prebuild menu like superfish.

To do what you want you'll need to use javascript and a server-side script, probably a database as well considering the number of possible options. No small task.
