this is driving me crazy but i am trying to find some examples of a drop
down selection box with a go button that doesnt use javascript... is this
possible or am i barking up a very wrong tree?

at the moment i am using this from an example i got off the net - the other
problem i am having with this is that w3c validator doesnt like me using
'name' but if i change it to 'id' the go button doesnt work,

<form name="langan"class="dropdown">
<fieldset>
<legend>Choose a Film</legend>
<label for="film">Title: </label>
<select name="film" id="film">
<option value="#"></option>
<option value="#">Fighting the Taliban</option>
<option value="#">Meeting the Taliban</option>
<option value="php/afghan.php">Afghan Ladies' Driving School</option>
</select>
<input type="button" onclick="document.location =
document.langan.film.options
[document.langan.film.selectedIndex].value;"value="GO" />
</fieldset>
</form>

please pardon me for my total ignorance on this matter

you can see it in action (if it helps) here

thanks in advance
