Drop down menu w/ description

[jeroendoorn]

Hi there!

I want to use this magnificant 'Drop down' script from dynamicdrive (like the 'forum jump' in this forum), but I use frames and I want to define the target of the link. In html I would type: ....A href ="url.html" target="window_right"....

Who can help me withe this topic?

Thanx,

Jeroen

You would modify the onClick in the input button like this:
<input type="button" value="Go"
onClick="parent.frame_name.location=document.a294.a969.options[document.a294.a969.selectedIndex].value">

Frame name would be what you named the frame that you want to load your page into in your frameset code.

Modification Help

This script is perfect for something I have built for work except it is a jump menu.

I have a form that I need to pass the value of the select element with a couple of other form elements.

Can some one assist me in modifying the script so it is not a jump menu but just a regular select element with descriptions?

Thanks for any advice/assitance.
