drop-down menu fp 2000

[MiMoSAgirL]

I am using FrontPage 2000 and I am trying a drop-down
menu containing a list of items and each is attached to a
hyperlink. I made the drop-down menu with a list of
things in there but I can't figure out how to make it so
that when I choose an item from the menu and press
the "submit" button beside it, I'd be able to be linked
to somewhere on the web. Please help.
Thank you very much.

Requires some javascript, and you really don't need a drop down with a submit button:
Here's an example drop down with the script below it. This will open the other site when a user
selects an option.

<p align="center"><b>Select a Site: </b><select id="setit" onchange="openit()">
<option value="">Select one</option>
<option value="javascript:window.open('http://www.altavista.com')">AltaVista</option>
<option value="javascript:window.open('http://www.yahoo.com')">Yahoo</option>
<option value="javascript:window.open('http://www.google.com')">Google</option>
</select>

<script language="javascript">
function openit(){
eval(setit.options[setit.selectedIndex].value);
}
</script>
