is this possible using jquery or javascript only?

回答1:

Yes you can do it easily with jquery.

$('select[name!="dropdownmain"]').hide();
$('select[name="' + $('select[name="dropdownmain"]').val() + '"]').show();
$('select[name="dropdownmain"]').change(function(){
    $('select[name!="dropdownmain"]').hide();
    $('select[name="' + $(this).val() + '"]').show();
});

And a more readable approach:

var $topSelect = $('select[name="dropdownmain"]');
var $nestedSelects = $('select[name!="dropdownmain"]');
showApplicableSelect();
$topSelect.change(showApplicableSelect);
function showApplicableSelect() {
    $nestedSelects.hide();
    $('select[name="' + $topSelect.val() + '"]').show();
}
