Dropdown menu with GO Button

[Andre]

Is there a way that one can use a drop down menu like ie the dropdown menu
found under the forms menu and have each entry go to a different page in your
website by selecting the item en then click on a go button, instead of just a
choice that is send by the forms handler.
I am working on a site with a lot of pages and want to use a single drop
down as a sort of a quick link instead of following the buttons.
in other words.. I need a dropdown menu that looks like the one from forms.
Any pointers or suggestions ??

They're called Jump Menus.

Here's an example


<form>
<p align="center"><b>Select a site </b>
<select id="Choice" style="color: #0000FF" size="1" name="mySelect">
<option value="">Select one</option>
<option value="http://altavista.com">AltaVista</option>
<option value="http://www.yahoo.com">Yahoo</option>
<option value="http://www.google.com">Google</option>
</select>
<input type="button" value="Go"
onclick="window.open(Choice.options[Choice.selectedIndex].value)">
</p>
</form>

Glad to help.

After going over all the instructions, I think you gave me the code
for the wrong page. I must have given you the wrong directions.

I have set the text color on this page to all white so there can't be
any mistaking it. It is the ONLY page with white text and links. It
does not have any options boxes or a dropdown menu. That page is a
sub-page.

Again, the style sheet is at


The page I am trying to change is:

http://christophersgrinders.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=23&osCsid=03cd443610fec1ea1f399fc7db523936

Or you go to the main page and click "Pizza" on the left menu.

I'm sorry if I led you in the wrong direction.
