Chain Select Menu Enhancement

[Kains]

1) Script Title: Chained Select Menu

2) Script URL (on DD): http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex...menu/index.htm

3) Describe problem: Is it possible to make the each selection open a predefined URL? I have this so far ...

<form action="detail.php" onchange="loadPage(this.value)">
<select name="query" style="width:100%;"></select>
<select name="query2" style="width:100%;" ></select>
<select name="query3" style="width:100%;" ></select>
<input type="button" value="Reset" onclick="resetListGroup('vehicles')">
<input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>

<script type="text/javascript">
function loadPage(url)
{
    location.href = url;
}
</script>

But I have no idea how to go further with it? The kind URL I would like to run each time a user selects would be

detail.php?query= (first menu choice)

and then

detail.php?query2= (2nd menu choice)

and so on.

Thanks

The function that's responsible for taking the final selected OPTION"s value attribute and redirecting the user to that value as a URL is the folliowing inside chanedmenu.js:

function goListGroup(){
for (i=arguments.length-1;i>=0; i--){
if (arguments[i].selectedIndex!=-1){
var selectedOptionvalue=arguments[i].options[arguments[i].selectedIndex].value
if (selectedOptionvalue!=""){
if (onclickaction=="alert")
alert(selectedOptionvalue)
else if (newwindow==1)
window.open(selectedOptionvalue)
else
window.location=selectedOptionvalue
break
}
}
}
}

This is untested, but try modifying the above to:

function goListGroup(){
	for (i=arguments.length-1;i>=0; i--){
		if (arguments[i].selectedIndex!=-1){
			var selectedOptionvalue=arguments[i].options[arguments[i].selectedIndex].value
			if (selectedOptionvalue!=""){
				alert('detail.php?query2=' + selectedOptionvalue) // change alert to location= to redirect
			}
		}
	}
}

This should alert the value "detail.php?query2=" PLUS the selected OPTION"s value attribute value. When you want it to redirect instead, just change alert() to location=
