This is probably fairly easy. The following is a script for a pull-down menu that opens the URL automatically. What i want, is for it to open it into a new full page.

&lt;script language="JavaScript"&gt;
<!-- Hide from old browsers


function surfto(form) {
	var myindex=form.dest.selectedIndex
	window.open(form.dest.options[myindex].value, "", "");
}
//-->
&lt;/script&gt;

And here's what i insert into the body....

<FORM NAME="myform">
  <SELECT NAME="dest" SIZE=1>
    <OPTION SELECTED VALUE="http://URL#1">URL #1 DESCRIPTION
    <OPTION VALUE="http://URL#2">URL #2 DESCRIPTION
    <OPTION VALUE="http://URL#3">URL #3 DESCRIPTION
    <OPTION VALUE="http://URL#4">URL#4 DESCRIPTION
  </SELECT>
<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="GO NOW!" onClick="surfto(this.form)">
</FORM>

Thanks for your help.

I think you might need to specify a target for the links but not for sure.

I tried throwing in pieces of code... but it didn't work. I also am not sure what i tried because i forgot to post it before i closed the document.

I also tried specifying a target- but it's not that simple.

So if anyone has another idea... i'd love to hear it. Thanks.
