Obviously you will have to capture the onChange event of the first drop down.
Depending on the value of this drop down you will send the request to the server and populate the value in the second drop down. You can send the request asynchronously using Ajax etc or through simply form submit using Javascript.
You can use JQuery or plain Javascript to capture onChange events etc
