What do you mean, "a submit button that corresponds to the selection"? Whatever is selected will be what is submitted. Am I missing something here?

I don't know javascript, but is this a seperate file: do.option.select.D1

If so, is it in the same folder as the page with the form? If not, where is the code?

If you want to create a navbar the easy way go to www.xara.com and download the free trial of Xara Webstyle 4

thanks again for the help, frontpage is a pos...the "do.option.select.D1" is neither a file(:(is this possible) or code it is just a part of coding for my main page...i think:D

OK, so what's supposed to happen when you click 'Submit'? Is it supposed to go to another page (navigation), or are you sending information somewhere (ie; form handling)?

all i was using it for was a redirect to popular search engines, and some of my own sites. ex. yahoo selected from my menu would upon hitting submit would go to yahoo not page cannot be found and the same for every other link i enter in the code, but when i hit submit it does not forward(in other words navigation) thanks those programs worked, but not with FP(frontpage)
