    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 Wink


    Hope that helps

    Your friendly helper Ape Neutral
