Hey,

I was wondering if anyone knew how to make it so that a typical pulldown menu would link to a given page when one of the pulldown menu options is selected WITHOUT having to use a button to intiate the link transfer.

In other words, the pulldown menu starts at a specific option, the user click the pulldown menu to expand it, the user then selects an option from the pulldown menu, and upon selecting that option the user is directed to the approriate link that corresponds to that option.

Ultimately, I'm trying to implement this here: http://www.einhander.net/writings

Thank you for any help you can provide! :D

[code]

function formHandler(){
var URL = document.form.site.options[document.form.site.selectedIndex].value;
window.location.href = URL;

}
[/code]

And just add a forum with the pull down menu, put url for value. By the way you need add the javascript tag (I'm stupid, don't know how to post code on this board, someone help!)

Hope it helps
Cheers

you'll need a bit more than that, I think.

First, name your form to, say.. "form".
Then name your select - tag to, say.. "bobby".
Then, put the necessary stuff into your option tags, as in the value. So, in "I.COVER", put <option value='cover.html'> or something.

Then, make a small javascript function, like this (from the top of my head, might not work) :

function take_us(){
window.location=document.form.bobby.value;
}

And in the form EDIT: not the form tag, the select - tag, this;

onchange=take_us()

.......I just woke up, as usual, so it might be all fu**ed. :o
