Pull Down menu Options need to open in New Window

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Aug 28.2003

We have a pulldown menu that lists other websites for users reference. I’d like the items on the list to open in a new window and not replace the site. Here are two sections of the code. I’ve tried numerous things and nothing is working. Any ideas?

function selectHOME()
{
//use this function to process Site navigation

choice=document.Home.IndexItem.selectedIndex;
if (choice==1)
{
top.location.href=”http://address.htm“;
}

Then further down the selections are:

<form name=”Home”><td align=”left”><font size=”-3″ face=”tahoma”>
<select name=”IndexItem” onchange=”selectHOME();document.location.reload();” style=”font: 7pt Tahoma; background: ffffff”>
<option value=”” selected>Websites
<option>Site One

@requestcodeAug 28.2003 — Here is an example of one way you can do it:

<html>

<head>


<title>Drop Down Test</title>

<script language="javascript">

function LinkUp(obj)

{

linkid=obj.options[obj.selectedIndex].value

NewWin=window.open(linkid,"win1",config="width=200,height=250,location=no,status=no,directories=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no,menubar=no,resizable=no,top=30,left=30")

}

</script>

</head>

<body bgcolor="lightgreen">

<form name="DropDown">

<select name="DDlinks" onchange="LinkUp(this)">

<option selected>Choose a Link

<option value="http://www.htmlgoodies.com"> HTML Goodies</option>

<option value="http://www.wsabstract.com"> Website Abstraction</option>

<option value="http://www.requestcode.com"> Request Code</option>

</select>

</form>

</body>

</html>

Success!
