I've seen a few questions like this, but mine is a bit more specific so I hope this isn't considered a repost.

I am working on a website that is built with struts 2 and hibernate. I need to dynamically populate a drop down menu using data from a sql query based on an option selected in another drop down menu.

So basically when the first option is selected I need to rehit the server and get the results from a query like

SELECT column FROM table WHERE option = dropDownOption

On top of that, I would really like to use ajax to only refresh the affected elements, however I'm really unfamiliar with ajax. I have jquery on this project and I found they have some ajax built in, but is this a good method for using it? any advice on this topic would be appreciated.
