1 drop down even triggering different frame output... help?

Hellio, first post. First of all, I know nothing about Java besides being able to cut and paste, so...

here's my question:

I'm using a neat little script that shows a drop down box; when you click on an entry, bammo, it takes you to a different page. I've found a way to make it so it targets a specific page; that works fine. The question is, can I make it trigger DIFFERENT pages to load in 2 separate frames?

Basically, I guess what I want is a:
drop down script that lets you specify multiple frame targets, with multiple .htm files.

Thanks for any help!

freudianslip,

With a drop down (select) menu, each choice is allowed one value. This is a good place to keep the URLs to go to, while the menu choices are the titles of the sites. The way to change two locations (different frames) is to add multiple commands to the "onClick" option (of the submit button). However, there really isn't an easy way to store another URL for one choice, so I recommend that you create pages like "0.html", "1.html", etc., and link to them in the order they are listed. Here is an example:

<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Go!" onClick="top.frames[0].location=frmLinks.selectLnk.options[frmLinks.selectLnk.options.selectedIndex].value; top.frames[1].location = (frmLinks.selectLnk.options.selectedIndex + 1) + '.html'">

The first link is to the value set in the SELECT statement; the second is to the value selected (if you selected the first selection, 1.html would be returned in the bottom frame.)

Good Luck!
