How to build search query in Sideview Utils to utilize values chosen from 2 pull-down menus?

Scenario : I have multiple pulldowns, that is A ---> B(On choosing value in A, it will open pull down B), similarly C--->D (on choosing value in C, it will pull down D). Now I will have write one search query taking values from B&D. I am not sure how I have to build hierarchy in sideview utils to accommodate one search query for values of B&D together.

Any suggestions or references will be helpful.

Thank you.

There are some examples of this in the apps for version 6 if you want to try those.

By using a form etc.

Might be a useful idea.

To give an overview you need to have a proper query which forms a table ABCD columns. That is the value which will be filtered as the hierarchy goes down. i have implemented it but not sure if i can explain all here. Check out the pulldown module documentation. If you are on splunk 6 you can also implement using the GUI. But search queries are important. Lookup are also essential for this kind of implementation.
