Question...

Well, I added a form on my page with a dropbox thing, and whenever I click on the section it doesn't do anything, I think the "action" thing needs to be different or something, have a look for yourself:

Nothing wrony with your action. This peice of code will take the users to the certain page when selected:

Code:

&lt;head>
&lt;script> 
 function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.0 
 eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"'"); 
 if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0; 
 } 
 &lt;/script> 
 &lt;script> 
 function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.0 
 eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"'"); 
 if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0; 
 } 
 &lt;/script>
&lt;/head>
&lt;body>

&lt;FORM action="http://www.123webmaster.com/search.cgi" method="get">
            &lt;select name="select6" onChange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)" class="field">
                      &lt;option value="http://snow.ride4pain.com/">Main Snow Section&lt;/option>
                      &lt;option value="http://snow.ride4pain.com/snowboard">Snowboarding&lt;/option>
                      &lt;option value="http://snow.ride4pain.com/snowmobile">Snowmobiling&lt;/option>
                      &lt;option value="http://snow.ride4pain.com/ski">Skiing&lt;/option>
                      &lt;option value="http://forums.ride4pain.com/index.php?c=8">Snow 
                      Forum Section&lt;/option>
&lt;/FORM>

Hope that helps!

:shock:

So I just put that thing in the <head>? I'm still a wee bit confused

**Mr. Tech** · 5th April 2003, 03:39 PM

OK, put this in your <head> tags:

Code:

&lt;script> 
 function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.0 
 eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"'"); 
 if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0; 
 } 
 &lt;/script> 
 &lt;script> 
 function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.0 
 eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"'"); 
 if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0; 
 } 
 &lt;/script>

And this in your <select> option which is in your forms:

Code:

onChange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)"

e.g:

<select name="select6" onChange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)">

Understand now?

Yes I understand perfect! Thanks so much! You've been such a great help... I would give you a link, but I'm not sure anyone from our site would be intrested in your site... extreme sports to web design, I'm one of the few like that, I'm guessing.
