Anyone know of any sites where there are tutorials are code I can use to create a jump menu. I need one that has 2 dropdown menus to create a path to information. An example of this would be a jump menu with a list of the 50 states, then a second menu with a list of each city in that state - then maybe a submit button. I have used menus like this on websites where I would make a selection from a menu and instantly another menu would populate the area below the first one. My programming skill level is still pathetic so I would need to see examples. I borrowed one from a site but every time I modify it - it doesn't work for some reason. I am hoping to use it for navigation purposes to hel clean up a site full of text links.

Is this what you mean:

Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Original: Alex Tu <boudha1@hotmail.com> -->
<!-- Web Site:  http://www.geocities.com/MadisonAvenue/4368 -->
<!-- Begin
function formHandler(form){
var URL = document.form.site.options[document.form.site.selectedIndex].value;
window.location.href = URL;
}
// End -->
</SCRIPT>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">
<table width="75%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" height="25" align="center">
  <tr> 
    <td valign="top" width="100%"> 
      <form name="form">
        <div align="center"> 
          <select name="site" size=1 onChange="javascript:formHandler()">
            <option value="">Search By Subject</option>
            <option value="To the page.htm">This is what you see</option>
            <option value="To the page.htm">This is what you see</option>
            <option value="To the page.htm">This is what you see</option>
            <option value="To the page.htm">This is what you see</option>
          </select>
        </div>
      </form>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Just make the changes in each line to suit the first one is highlighted.

Aside from the option value tags, what else do I need to edit here to make this work? I don't know javascript other than inserting the code into my site. Thanks.

Just copy and paste the <head> section as you see it and the same for the <body> section if you need more lines than the ones already there just repeat the code and make the changes in each line.Or have a look HERE under country it may be exactly what your after.
