hello, i use this tecnique, but i write onClick="document.DropDown.action='modrep_results.cfm"; you need not to force submit with a function as you are in a form this way you can insert more than 1 submit button (i.e. update, cancel etc) however i think it' better to refer elements with getElementsById("id") as this is more standard regards salvatore
