How does the JavaScript or HTML code look like? Are you passing in the name of the frame as well??

Hi there,

You'll need to rewrite the function that Dreamweaver added to the page a little. Try something like this:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.1
  window.parent.frames[targ].location.href = selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value;
  if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0;
}
//-->
</script>

Now, instead of passing parent in the onchange event, you can pass the name of the frame, for example:

Code:

<select name="MyList" onChange="MM_jumpMenu('rightFrame',this,0)">

Hope this helps,
