Multiple selection widgets dependency

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

I would like to populate a second dropdown box (cq widget, eg xtype="selection") dynamically based on what was selected from the first dropdown via a component's dialog.xml.  How do I do this in AEM 6?

For example, I have a country dropdown box, when you select say, Australia, the second dropdown box would populate the states available for Australia.  This is only an example, but hope you know what I mean.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that this is the dropdown box used by the dialog.xml.  In other words, usage of the cq:Widget.  For example, I have a component, which have 2 dropdown boxes as stated above.
