Form List problem with Javascript

[Timothy Robertson]

I have a list that is being generated dynamically from my MS SQL
database. It basically lists a series of events in the database as the
labels and has there ID numbers as the value.

I want it so that when an event is clicked that a eventdetail page will be
opened in a seperate frame, passing the selected event's ID number through
the URL.

I think I need to use Javascript, but when I use the behavoir function in
Dreamweaver it does nothing.

Any suggestions?
my code is below:
(My page is in ASP VBscript)

<select name="select" size="20" class="dropdown" id="el01"
onChange="MM_goToURL('tdetails','tour_details2.asp ?tid=<%=(rs_tourdates.Fields.Item("tourid").Value) %>">
<%
While (NOT rs_tourdates.EOF)
%>
<option value="<%=(rs_tourdates.Fields.Item("tourid").Valu e)%>"><%=
DoDateTime((rs_tourdates.Fields.Item("tourdate").V alue), 2, 2057) %> -
<%=(rs_tourdates.Fields.Item("tourtitle").Value) %> -
<%=(rs_tourdates.Fields.Item("tourlocation").Value )%></option>
<%
rs_tourdates.MoveNext()
Wend
If (rs_tourdates.CursorType > 0) Then
rs_tourdates.MoveFirst
Else
rs_tourdates.Requery
End If
%>
</select>


And above in the code, Dreamweaver generated this Javascript:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_goToURL() { //v3.0
var i, args=MM_goToURL.arguments; document.MM_returnValue = false;
for (i=0; i<(args.length-1); i+=2) eval(args[i]+".location='"+args[i+1]+"'");
}
//-->
</script>

I discovered that if I took the method="POST" action="" out of the form tags
then the javascript worked but only in safari, not in explorer. I double
checked and explorer does have javascript enabled, does anyone know where
the problem may lye?
