Need suggestions for a song list form

[RichO]

Hi,

I work for a company that provides disc jockeys for weddings and other events. Currently our website allows customers to make choices from our list of over 1000 songs using a form with a drop-down menu (SELECT) and an "add" button. Currently it's quite a tedious and time consuming process for the customer because there is only one drop down menu and 10 genres of music. So, for instance, once they have chosen songs from the 70's and want to move on to the 80's they have to choose 80's from another menu and click a button to make the contents of the drop down menu change.

The company that does our website has given me permission to design a new web page form for the song selection.

I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a better way to do this, where the customer can easily navigate around the extensive song list and select up to 30 songs.

If anyone has ever done something like this I would be interested in hearing how you formatted it.

Thanks

I would do something like a drop down box for the genre then radio buttons or checkboxes for the songs. You could use XMLHTTPRequest to get it fast, there's a nice example that's sort of like this-

Note that this example lacks some things like that the javascript should look for the code 200 or 304, not just 200
