onselect
<select name="book_date" id="book_date">
<option value="0">Today</option>
<option value="1">1 day ago</option>
<option value="2">2 days ago</option>
<option value="3">3 days ago</option>
<option value="4">4 days ago</option>
</select>
when a value from this drop-down box is selected, i want to go straight to the next page - display_bookings.asp.
what is the syntax for the onselect?
Thanks folks.

When the selection changes, the onchange event is fired.

think that should be:
<select name="book_date" id="book_date" onChange="location.href='display_bookings.asp'">
<option value="0">Today</option>
<option value="1">1 day ago</option>
<option value="2">2 days ago</option>
<option value="3">3 days ago</option>
<option value="4">4 days ago</option>
</select>

That would change the location but it ignores the selected value, you might as well have a normal link.

Place the urls in the values for the options & use something like...
Code:
onchange="location.href = this[this.selectedIndex].value;"

No kidding :)
What is the url you want to go to if "Today" is chosen (including any querystring values to tell it apart from the other options)?
Cheers,
Chris
