Is there a way to open a llink from a list/menu item in a new browser window. I placed this in the code and it didn’t work.

<option value=”http://www.dhfs.state.wi.us/dph_emsip/index.htm”>Wisconsin</option>

target="_blank"

@ckiskeauthorJan 23.2004 — I put the underscore and it didn't work still, is this a valid tag within the form tag?

@pyroJan 23.2004 — [font=monospace]<form>[/font], yes (with a tranitional or frameset DOCTYPE); [font=monospace]<option>[/font], no...
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@PhillMcJan 23.2004 — just noticed those were option tags...

Post more of your source, I can't do much with 2 lines. ?

@PhillMcJan 23.2004 — I notice that 'onChange' you call a function, what is that functions code?
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@ckiskeauthorJan 23.2004 — this is the script dreamweaver produced: I am more of a visual designer - wingin' it with the programming.

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">

<!--

function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.0

eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"'");

if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0;

}

//-->

</script>
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@PhillMcJan 23.2004 — K, I'll get on it and find a solution for you. ?
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@ckiskeauthorJan 23.2004 — thank You...

I bug my programmer all the time, i figured i would seek help elsewhere.
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@fredmvJan 23.2004 — &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
//&lt;![CDATA[
function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore)
{
var op = selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex];

<i> </i>if(op.text.toLowerCase() != 'wisconsin')
<i> </i>{
<i> </i> location = op.value;

@ckiskeauthorJan 23.2004 — oh my gosh you rock!

The only problem is i have to have every state(link) open in a new window. how do i do that. sorry i didn't mention that before.
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@TheBearMayJan 23.2004 — Borrowing from Fredmv, it should be:
[code=php]
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore)
{
var op = selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex];

window.open(op.value, '', '');

if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex = 0;
}
//]]>
</script>[/code]
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@PhillMcJan 23.2004 — DANG IT FRED! You beat me! Well, this is what I got.

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">

<!--

function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.0

window.open(selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value)

if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0;

}

//-->

</script>



I'll remember that fred!lol

This will always open in new window
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@fredmvJan 23.2004 — Yes &#8212; the two above pieces of code are what you want &#8212; from your sample piece of code it seemed like all you wanted was so the "Wisconsin" option opened in a new window.
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@ckiskeauthorJan 23.2004 — thank you soooo much.

@PhillMcJan 23.2004 — No Problem, Glad we could help ?
