Hey,

I am trying to find a script for a drop-down box, and when you click on one of the selections in the box, it will bring up the the contents in a new window.

Is there such a thing?

www.irt.org - search on JavaScript and drop-down for all the related tutorials.

I think some members here have jumpboxes, or drop-down boxes as well. Also check out www.hotwired.com/webmonkey/ for tutorials on using JavaScript and forms to make a drop-down link box.

As for opening in a new window, ideally you would add a target, such as target="_blank" to the link address.

hth,

Suzanne

Hi Jesse,

I have a number of selection list scripts at my site, one -- "Select & Go Menus" -- may be what you want. As written all of the scripts use location.href, but that can be modified to window.open() -- if that's what you'd rather use. The scripts also come with explanations/tutorials.
