If the Show single category event of the embedded view computes to your combobox and the combobox is set to refresh the doc on keyword changes, it should work straight away.
The only other thing to consider is, that the combobox should never be empty. You can use @DbColumn on the embedded view to provide the values and you should provide the first value of the list returned by @DbColumns as the default value.

That’s not an easy question. There are tons of good stuff available on the Internet, but due to the many different ways, a Domino web application can be build, it is close to impossible to provide a simple, well-structured tutorial.
Domino can do a lot of stuff automatically for you and the key is to know, under which conditions this is simply good enough, when and how to apply simple additions (e.g. CSS and JavaScript) and when you should really do everything manually.
For a start, I would recommend to read the relevant chapters in the IBM redbook “Domino Designer 6: A Developer’s Handbook”. Next have a look at some articles on developerWorks, like
Building Web applications in Domino 6
Making Web browsers look smarter with Domino 6
Anatomy of a Domino e-commerce Web site
These articles maybe somewhat dated by now, but many basics still apply, plus - taken all together - the cover quite a number of different topics.
After you made your way through that, start reading blogs that deal with Domino web development like
to name just a few.
