    <p>How about either (1) using JQuery and loading the drop-down with a Partial view returned by your controller or (2) you could have an AJAX call that would return your values as a JSON object mapped from your entity and you can render them in the drop-down. This way your form won't be submitted every time you update a drop-down.</p> <p>The first solution might look something like this:</p> <p><strong>JQUERY</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;script&gt; $("#searchContinent").change(function() { $("#searchCountry").load("/YourController/GetCountries", { 'continentId': $(this).val() }, function (response, status, xhr) { if (status == "error") { alert("An error occurred while loading the results."); } }); }); &lt;/script&gt; @Html.DropDownList("searchContinent", null, "-- All continents --" }) &lt;div id="searchCountry"&gt; &lt;!--the newly created drop-down will be placed here--&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <hr> <p><strong>(EDIT)</strong></p> <p>For Javascript you might try something like this:</p> <p><strong>YOUR CURRENT VIEW</strong></p> <pre><code>@Html.DropDownList("searchContinent", null, "-- All continents --", new { onchange = "getCountries(this)" }) &lt;div id="searchCountry"&gt; &lt;!--the newly created drop-down will be placed here--&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;script&gt; function getCountries(input){ var selectedValue = input.options[input.selectedIndex].value; var xhReq = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhReq.open("GET", "YourController/GetCountries?continentId="+selectedValue, false); xhReq.send(null); var serverResponse = xhReq.responseText; document.getElementById("searchCountry").innerHTML=serverResponse ; } &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>DISCLAIMER:</strong> This I have never tried so if it's wrong don't hesitate to let me know and correct it if necessary</p> <p><strong>(END EDIT)</strong></p> <hr> <p><strong>CONTROLLER</strong></p> <pre><code>public ActionResult GetCountries(string continentId) { /*Get your countries with your continentId and return a Partial View with a list of countries as your model*/ return PartialView(countryList); } </code></pre> <p><strong>GetCountries VIEW</strong></p> <pre><code>@model IEnumerable&lt;SchoolCup.Domain.Country&gt; @Html.DropDownListFor( 0, Model) </code></pre>

    2. COJquery is a javascript library. It's really easy. What you have to do is include the JQUERY libraries and add the bit of code I provided to your view in a <script> tag. What that is doing is that it is associating that function to your element's "onchange" event and when it is fired it will execute. But you can also do this with pure Javascript if that is easier. I can translate the JQUery into pure Javascript and edit my response.

Querying!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
