I have a sneaking suspicion this topic may have been discussed in another post.

However I cannot located it quickly, been searching over and over this forum using different search queries to try and find it, anyways that explains why I am listing this as a topic, onto the problem.

We have 5 or 6 root categories:

Brother

Lexmark

Epson etc

These are printer cartridge manufacturers of course, what I ideally want to get out of X Cart v4.1.11, is so when a user selects a category stated above.

Is a drop down menu select box (I have previously developed in X Cart using this forum and other sources to get what I want) and thats it no other models there at all and no products in view at all.

So basically all a user would see when they click on the vertical menu, say they select brother.

Instead of seeing a humongous list of printer model no's (whicb we have over 100 definately of them, thats making the page huge to load), is to just show the drop down menu.

And no products until they select the printer model no from the drop down box.

Is this has to be possible somehow I should imagine, but how is this achievable, any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeremy.
