More information, please? :)


Auto-submit dropdowns mostly work by triggering the onchange event of the
SELECT element. This is fired when you select a different OPTION using a
mouse - however, if you are using a keyboard, it is fired when you press the
down arrow to move through the list. You therefore can't select anything but
the first OPTION, as it triggers the onchange event and submits the form.
