If you want to redirect to particular link based on drop down selection, user go button and capture the selected element in drop down, and redirect url.
Try to implement code and post your code here to fix.

I tried downloading the script but i dont know how to modify it, like adding a "go" button, if you choose USA - California - Los Angeles
there should be a link to Los Angeles which if user press go it will go to specified link

Thanks Shanti
the link is working with USA but if you select Canada and Mexico problem occurs in the city dropdown, seem it disappear?

Shanti C 106 Posting Virtuoso · Answer 6 · 2011-03-07T16:54:08+00:00

i just showed an example for USA only.
You just write same kind of code with your required links by observing red color lines in the above code.then it will work.
If you don't know the basics in java script. Please read the tutorials online and try to change your code accordingly.
Thank you.
