dev peeps,

I’m making a website in which there’s a page with 2 dropdown lists (SELECTs).  
The first one selects a group, the second one then appears and allows you to select a specific task for that group.

I am now wondering how I’d save my selection on both dropdown lists over page refreshes. Because when I select the group from the first dropdown list the page refreshes and shows the specific tasks of that group but the group dropdown list itself is also refreshed.

Hope this is a bit clear.

Thx in advance
