place this in the head:
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function formHandler(){
var URL =
document.form.site.options[document.form.site.selectedIndex].value;
window.location.href = URL;
// End -->
}
</script>
Then this goes in the body, where you want the drop down to appear:
<form name="form">
<select NAME="site" SIZE="1" onChange="formHandler()">
<option VALUE="pagename.htm">Go to.... </option>
<option VALUE="pagename.htm">Home</option>
</form>

Take a look at the drop down code on my site below. The link is under WMR
Quick Links. You can set a target value in the function part of the script.
