|Your javascript is wrong.
|
|change this

When you converted it to PHP did you include the <form> tags? I received a
similar error until I added the <form> tags. Other than that, try adding a
name value to the form and change 'document.forms[0].action = where;' to
'document.form_name.action = where;'
Except for the fact that I don't have this.php, it appeared to work for me
after the addition of the form tags as posted.
