Using a selected value from one json result set as the input parm for another

[CraigInDallas]

Two questions here.

I am populating a dropdown list on the screen load event. Works like a charm.

On the same load event i need to populate a child dropdown list based on the default selected value from the 1st.

Since nothing has had a chance to be selected yet manually how do I:

1, Set one of Dropdown1 values as selected so I can use it for my 2nd REST

1. Choose which one in Dropdown1 I would like.

   Thanks
