Select OnChange does not work or fire.
I'm now bald, thank you very much!
Why does this work:
"<SELECT size=1 name=\"Item_1_Size\" onChange=\"This.Form.Submi
<OPTION value=14x22 selected>14\" x 22\"</OPTION>
<OPTION value=11x28>11\" x 28\"</OPTION>
<OPTION value=22x28>22\" x 28\"</OPTION>
<OPTION value=0 >Item Size</OPTION></SELECT>";
But not this:
<SCRIPT TYPE=\"text/javascript\">
<!--
function Update()
{
alert(\"no fewer than 50!\")
document.Form1.action = \"/cgi-bin/order.cgi\"; // Does not fire even with this line remarked out
document.Form1.submit(); // Does not fire even with this line remarked out
return true;
}
// -->
</SCRIPT>
"<SELECT size=1 name=\"Item_1_Size\" onChange=\"Update()\">
<OPTION value=14x22 selected>14\" x 22\"</OPTION>
<OPTION value=11x28>11\" x 28\"</OPTION>
<OPTION value=22x28>22\" x 28\"</OPTION>
<OPTION value=0 >Item Size</OPTION></SELECT>";
I need to submit this back to the orgination cgi for error checking and price calculations.

Hello...
The function you are saying doesn't work functions fine in IE and firefox. Make sure that you have <SELECT is in the form named "Form1".

"<SELECT size=1 name=\"Item_1_Size\" onChange=\"This.Form.Submi
Perhaps this is what you wanted to post:
