Action on Selected Pulldown

[dinoviapangea]

I have a pulldown menu as below,

<Form Name="Top_Page" Action="Next_Page" Method="Post">

<Select name="item_id">
<OPTION Value = "1" >#item_1_name#
<OPTION Value = "2" >#item_2_name#
<OPTION Value = "3" >#item_3_name#
</Select >

</Form>

How can I have the form submit when a user selects from the pulldown?

Thanks,
Dino

this is a javascript question. forum216

however since its easy to answer....

<Select name="item_id" onchange = "document.formname.submit();">

change "formname" with the name of your form.

If you don't ask the right questions, you don't get the right answers. A question asked in the right way often points to its own answer. Asking questions is the ABC of diagnosis. Only the inquiring mind solves problems.

Nothing happens. I'm wondering if the .cfm in "document.Next_Page.cfm.submit();" is affecting it.

<Form Name="Top_Page" Action="Next_Page.cfm" Method="Post">

<Select name="item_id" onchange="document.Next_Page.cfm.submit();">
<OPTION Value = "1" >#item_1_name#
<OPTION Value = "2" >#item_2_name#
<OPTION Value = "3" >#item_3_name#
</Select >

</Form>

form name. not page name.

i.e.
<form name = "FORMNAME">
