Using <select> tag With JS

[Joejoe04]

Hi,I want to use the <select> tag along with the <optgroup> and <option> tags to link to another page when a particular <option> is selected by the visitor. Is there a way to do this besides using javascript or is that required? Thanks.

If you were using a server side technology (e.g. PHP, ASP.NET, etc.) you could submit the value using a form and then process the value on the server and then redirect the user to the particular page.

Hmm, or, you could have separate forms per option. Not sure how that would come out looking, but:

<form><select><option>1</option></select></form><form><select><option>2</option></select></form><form><select><option>3</option></select></form>

with each form going somewhere else..

i can't see that coming out too well ! i'd use PHP/ASP to redirect the user!
