This is a fairly common topic here in the forum. You can search and find a number of conversation on this topic.

As a starting point, see [Dependent Drop Down](https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/dependent-drop-down/16558) and [Values from the second field of the form - depending on the selected value of the first field? - #2 by KenWhitesell](https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/values-from-the-second-field-of-the-form-depending-on-the-selected-value-of-the-first-field/18762/2)

Note, in general, you’re going to find this easier if you use Django forms and templates, rather than hand-constructing the full html.
