drop down menu with links

sleepyescapade

Is there a simple way to insert links into a drop down menu? I tried inserting them as the option value but to no avail, unless you have to use the full URL with http://etc? I just used 'page.html'

It should be fairly straight-forward, but you really need to throw up a code sample. We're not psychics.

<SELECT NAME="categories">
<option value="Choose_a_category">Choose a category</option>
<option value="live.html">Living Room</option>
<option value="photo.html"> Photos</option>
<option value="dining.html">Dining</option>
<option value="review.html">Review</option>
</select>

The customer needs to be able to click on an option in the drop down and be directed to that page.

Think this will work:
<select onchange="window.location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">
<option value="Choose_a_category">Choose a category</option>
<option value="live.html">Living Room</option>
<option value="photo.html"> Photos</option>
<option value="dining.html">Dining</option>
<option value="review.html">Review</option>
</select>
