First of all the values of your select options should be different. I would suggest

<OPTION VALUE=&quot;YAHOO.COM...&quot;>Yahoo

<!--
function searchnet(){
var srchURL=window.searchform.searchlist.value;
srchURL = &quot; + srchURL
window.searchform.action=srchURL
window.searchform.submit()

}
//-->

I think this is what you are trying to acheive.

ok, but why would you put window.searchform.submit(); ?

i only put the searchURL for the option values so it would help people better understand, i guess. :)
had to put something there while i still dont have the real URL's.

A submit button automatically submits a form but a standard button does not. If you don't submit the form nothing will happen.
