action on form submittion

[meme]

All,

I am not sure if this is a serverside/clientside question.

Is there a way in php to direct the user to different pages according to their selection in the form. I know there's one "action" field in html form, and that accepts one argument. But what I want is that the user gets directed to one of 2 pages depending on their choice in a dropdown box. is this possible?

Many thanks

Thanks,

do you mean the following possible within the action? I've tested it and the user stays on the same page regardless of input. may be there's something missing?

<TR><form <?php if ($_POST[user] .= 'admin') {"action = admin_sel.php";} else {"action = n_user_page.php";} ?> method=post>

<tr><td><select name = "user">
<option value='admin'>Administrator</option>
<option value='emp'>Employee</option>
</select></TD>
<td><input type=submit value=submit></td></tr>

No it's not what I meant but it would work if you used correct syntax and echoed the output.
