Drop-down choices opening in a new window

May 17.2004

I am using the below script to create a drop-down menu.

My question is: what do I need to add to the script to have each drop-down choice open in a new browser window instead of the same window?

<form name=”jump”>
<select name=”menu” onChange=”location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedIndex].value;” value=”GO”>
<option value=”#”>Select here…</option>
<option value=”http://www.aaa.com”>Choice A</option>
<option value=”http://www.bbb.com”>Choice B</option>
</select>
</form>

Thanks.

@David_HarrisonMay 18.2004 — Try this:&lt;form action="#"&gt;
&lt;select onchange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value);return true;" value="GO"&gt;
&lt;option value="#"&gt;Select here...&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;option value="http://www.aaa.com"&gt;Choice A&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;option value="http://www.bbb.com"&gt;Choice B&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;/select&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;
