I have a drop-down box (created through 'insert' -> 'form' -> 'drop-down box' in FP2002) and like that users not only select one of 3 values I provide (e.g. A, B, C which are then used for a database input) but that once selected a new picture is showed via a hyperlink. anybody who knows a good way of doing this?
thanks. chris

Try this Chris;

<BODY>

<form name="jump">
<select name="menu"
onChange="location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedInd
ex].value;" value="GO">
<option value="URL goes here">Text goes here</option>
<option value="URL goes here">Text goes here</option>
<option value="URL goes here">Text goes here</option>
<option value="URL goes here">Text goes here</option>
<option value="URL goes here" Text goes here</option>
</select>
</form>

Ric - sorry that I come again - how would I have to modify your code that I can select the area (resp frame) where I like the picture from the URL to show up? as I have done it know it pops up right on top of the drop-down box. as you seen - i am not an expert and maybe HTML writing is already too far out for me...

I never could work that bit out myself i'm afraid, it was something I was
looking at doing myself but never finished it. I went with a bulleted list
layout in frames instead.
