    I guess this goes into the same direction, but it does not necessarily have to a child category. Just any....
    I'm curious to know how would I go about making my form give a different secondary drop-down menu depending on the choice selected by the first drop-down menu?

    ex: State - California (first drop-down)
    City - Valencia (second drop-down)

    Any ideas on this?

  4. You would have to implement this using AJAX and dynamic drop downs.

    Here is a tutorial on how to dynamically populate a drop down:

    However that is only going to cover how to do so in a static situation. You'd have to write custom code using jQuery to then interact with and change the values based on a selection using AJAX.

    It would be a fairly complex customization and not as simple as just using a hook and setting the values because you'd have to use AJAX to update them without a page refresh taking place.
