links "input type = select"

is there anyway to submit a form by clicking on an option in a drop down select menu... instead of clicking a submit button...?

I am not sure whether you will be able to submit a form but here is a link to a page which has some code links to another page from a select menu.

Perhaps with a little imagination you could add some code which will submit the form.

Hope it helps..

Yes you can, but only in IE4+ and NS3+ with the following JS-event

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function getURL(form) {
// get the value of the selected option
var url = form.selURL.options[form.selURL.selectedIndex].value;
// go there
location.href = url;
</SCRIPT>
<FORM>
<SELECT NAME=selURL onChange="getURL(this.form);">
<OPTION VALUE="someURL">blah
<OPTION VALUE="otherURL">blahblah
</SELECT>
</FORM>

But to be sure everyone with older browsers can use it add a button (with other javascript you can hide it from showing in newer browsers, though)
