OR maybe....can I use it to call a javascript method to call up a servlet? Does that work?

But, hmm.....i was thinking of using onChange...and then....process the parameter via servlet?

OTTOMH, attach a function to the onChange event of your SELECT tag. The object representing the tag will probably be accessible as document.all.yourTagId, or possibly something else, depending on the browser object model. This object will expose a collection corresponding to all the OPTION tags and a property to indicate which is selected. I'd recommend you to find a definition of the browser object model and to check out sites specializing in JavaScript.

Like..most of the pages I surfed to, they only showed how to make a drop down box..and then see what the option was chosen ONLY when the button is pressed. Is there any way I can scan the input, as soon as the user chooses an option from the drop down box?
