I am very new to scripting and appreciate any help from you gurus…  
I have two selectboxes, (2nd select box should not be visisble)after  
selecting an option in one selectbox the other selectbox should be  
displayed.  
I know how to do this is javascript, but not in ruby on rails because  
I am not able to pick the proerties like style and nam for the select  
box  
Thank you
