dropdown menu problems

the links i put in the dropdown menu doesnt work. when i click on one it will load briefly but stay on the index.
i have tried the address of hte destination and even tried a direct linkbut none work.

my forum is phpbb3

We need a screen shot w/ some captions of the problem

what would a screenshot of a url link that doesnt load in the drop menu tell ya

It may surprise you how we help with "certain screenshots"

well here the script i used along with one of the links i tried

Code:

<div style="text-align: center;"><form name="jump2">
    <select name="menu" onchange="location=document.jump2.menu.options[document.jump2.menu.selectedIndex].value;" value="GO">
    <option value="">Click Here for Staff</option>
    <option value="http://joinbro.forumotion.com/u1">admin</option>
    <option value="LINK HERE">name</option>
    <option value="LINK HERE">name</option>
    <option value="LINK HERE">name</option>
    <option value="LINK HERE">name</option>
    </select>
    </form></div>

Hello there i think i may know the problem but i need to ask you a Question first
Do you have more then one drop down menu in your forum ? if so then can you post the 2 codes here so i can change the settings on the menu

Ape

i did but i took the other one off so this is the only one although it was setup in a table format.

but i have started it over with nothing else for thinking that was a problem but still cant get it to work

Okay give this a try !!
You must keep the code as it is and i have tested it and it's working on my forum fine

Code:

<div style="text-align: center;"><form name="jump3">
  
  <select name="menu"
onchange="location=document.jump3.menu.options[document.jump3.menu.selectedIndex].value;"
 value="GO">
    <option value="">Click Here for Staff</option>
    <option value="http://joinbro.forumotion.com/u1">admin</option>
    <option value="LINK HERE">name</option>
    <option value="LINK HERE">name</option>
    <option value="LINK HERE">name</option>
    <option value="LINK HERE">name</option>
    </select>
    </form></div>

EDIT:
If you would like more then one on the forum you will need to change the menu name like this
Find all the names in the code and change them

Code:

jump3

 to

Code:

jump4a

and the next one will be

Code:

jump5b

And so on what this is a name the menu is looking for and if the name is the same it don't know how to change the settings


Hope that helps

Your friendly helper Ape

it works now. but one question does the code differ if i want to put the others back up
