How to use "onchange" in cfselect to perform the action of the form rather than using the submit button.

The page I'd like to change can be found at:
http://www.wiebe-carlson.com/products.cfm
My form uses a submit button to perform the action, but I'd rather not have a button. I'd like it to perform the action with the "onchange" attribute.
Here's my current code:
<cfform action="products.cfm" method="post" name="category_frm" preloader="no">
<cfselect
enabled="Yes"
name="category_sel"
size="1"
multiple="no"
query="rsCategories"
value="CatNum"
display="Category">
</cfselect>
<cfinput name="GetCategory" type="submit" value="Go!">
</cfform>
Thanks for your help.
