Since the left menu is a fairly common feature of any site, in particular those corporate, I thought I could give an example of how this can be done. The level is clearly beginner, but as such it could save many hours of headache especially for somebody at terms with a first eZ project, thus flattening a little the famous steep learning curve of eZ Publish. :)

Hi everyone!

Since I notice that there are quite some posts on this topic, I thought I should share with you how I implemented a form where one field depends on another. I will use the classic example where the user selects a province and then is limited in his choice of choosing a city only to those cities that actually exist in that province.
