    Default jump menus

    a client has requested that jump/drop down menus refresh on browser back.

    e.g, a user selects page a_1 from a jump menu containing options: a_1, a_2 and
    a_3, on page A.

    from page a_1, the user browses back to page A, but decides they want to
    return to the a_1 page they just visited via the jump menu.

    however, when returning to page A, the jump menu state persists selecting URL
    a_1. as such, it is not active, and on click will not return to page a_1.

    if user selects URL a_2, menu jumps to page a_2 as expected. on browser back,
    a_2 is selected and deactivated in jump menu, whereas, a_1 and a_3 are
    selectable.

    so, one can not return to a page from a jump menu when one has visited that
    page from the menu and browsed back to the initial page with the menu, unless
    the initial page is refreshed, thereby refreshing and resetting the jump menu.

    is there code that can be included in the <body onLoad=""> that would refresh
    jump/drop down menus?

    yeah don't worry folks i found a way to do it...

    insert this .js snippet after the jump menu's </form> tag:

    <script language="JavaScript"><!--

    Default Jump Menus

    looking for a solution to create a jump menu in which options will open either
    in _parent or in _blank.

    e.g. i have a jump menu with two options, one that links to a 'locations' page
    within the site, and an option that needs to link to another domain, and
    therefore needs to open in a new browser wondow.

    i am currently using <onChange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)"> which is the
    canned MM jump menu solution.

    anyone?
