Hello,

I need some help with this code. I have a dropdown menu that is a module in merchantadvisor. I can use coding in the module to create a dropdown menu which is uses asp to retrieve from the database. Currently it uses a go button. I want to get rid of that step for the user so when they make a selection from the dropdown menu it will populate the results without the go button. I hope that makes sense!

Here is the code that I'm working with. It's not working right and I don't see the problem.

This is the error:

document.form1.jumpmenu is null or not an object

I don't know what that means!

Any advice?

Thanks!!!



code:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" >
<!-- hide
function jumpto(x){
if (document.form1.jumpmenu.value != "null") {
document.location.href = x
}
}
// end hide -->
</script>
<form action="deluxeSFshop.aspx" name="searchbox" id="searchbox">
<input type='hidden' name='sfid' value=87970 >
<select name="c" id="c" onChange="jumpto(document.form1.jumpmenu.options[document.form1.jumpmenu.options.selectedIndex].value)">

This just means document.form1 doesn't refer to anything in existence. If you are trying to access the form I think you are, you should use document.getElementById("searchbox") instead.
