    Additional question: Is this an application where the selection from the one drop down list causes a form or page refresh? It's possible that this is a timing issue where the script is not recognizing the object of the second drop down because there is some sort of processing that is happening. Again, giving us the error information and a code snippet of some sort will be helpful.
