drop down JUMP, Sounds like some new dance craze....

[mrheff]

Ello phpfreak one and all,

My wee problem is this, ive mad a menu sytem that creates itself out of directories etc...

but now we want to use a drop down menu, y'know those jump from page pag type deals

so i made the lil form for it  i figur its just needs to redirect the page to a given variable..... here comes the problem...

i am using frames, can i state a target frame for my redirct?,

 

 

 

or could i do it this way... have a link under the menu the users selct from the drop down, then clicks the button which is just a href with a variable in it.

 

 

 

anyways here is what i have...

<?php echo 'jump<br>';
echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"$_SERVER[php_SELF]\" >";
echo " <SELECT NAME=directory> " ;
$dirname = "gallery";
$dh = opendir($dirname) or die("couldn't open directory");
while (!(($file = readdir($dh)) === false ) ) {
   if (is_dir("$dirname/$file") && $file!="." && $file !="..")
	echo " <OPTION VALUE=$file> $file " ;}
closedir($dh);
echo " </SELECT><br>
<input type=\"submit\" name=\"dir\" value=\"GO!\"> " ;
?>

this code generates a drop down menu of all directories contained within the gallery folder

 

 

and i figure above this code i need some type of

 

<?php

$directory = $_POST["directory"];
header("Location:/$directory/gallery.php");
?> 

type dealbut i cant find anything on redirecting to a Url that is a target does anyone know the syntax for this

??? I Am intending it to redirect the frame called frame_bottom

 

 

ANy ideas appreciated guys.

ta for your time, and patience
