Help with form

Not sure if this is the correct area as it is html embedded into a perl script.

Anyway, I have this form in my page:

<table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="100%" class="border">
<tr>
<form action="$surl\" name="newonly" method="POST">
<td align="left" style="padding: 5px" class="catbg"><span class="smalltext">Your current settings are: $current - Choose how you would like to view posts</span>&nbsp;<select name="newonly"><option value="">Select Post View</option><option value="unread">View Unread</option><option value="all">View All</option</select> <input type="submit" class="button" value="Select">
</td>
</form>
</tr>
</table>


Everything works OK and the user file is updated etc etc but I have to click the Select button twice.

Does anyone know a way around this.

Many Thank's
