Hi, to add to confusion, you could also try TemplateTamer, it comes with
development environment suited for template based development, and encourges
OO development.

I think that the javascript variant is more user friendly, but of course you
need to create templates, that you will populate correctly in order to have
proper javascript. Here is an example of such page developed with TT, at the
bottom in the archieve, when you click on some category, javascript shows
advices from that category (without reloading an page). Similar could be
achived for second combo box.

php program connects to the database, and creates proper javascript on the
fly by using templates. (you would for instace have template for one
category, and subtemplates for items in that category, and then you would
repeat whole bunch as many times as you would like).

If you are going to use TT, and get stuck, let me know, and I might offer
some additional advice, if needed.
