[SOLVED] window.location : what is the problem in the code

[abdfahim]

what ism the problem in the following code?

 

<select name="bsc" onchange="window.location='?category=aaa&bsc='+this.value;">

<option>abcd</option>

........................

........................

</select>

[phpwonderkid]

try this

<select name="bsc" onchange="window.location=somepage.php?category=aaa&bsc="+this.value;>

<option>abcd</option>

........................

........................

</select>

It should be location.href (or window.location.href)

[abdfahim]

I tried both, but Not working.. I forgot to tell you, this code works fine in Mozilla Firefox and Opera, but don't work in IE. In internet explorer, the address of the page loaded OnChange is

 

"http://localhost/somepage.php?category=aaa&bsc="

 

that is IE cant read this.value of the script.

[abdfahim]

I have another observation. If i write

 

<input type="text" name="bsc" onchange="window.location.href='?category=aaa&bsc='+this.value;">

 

then IE can run the correct script (can read this.value). Is that mean that IE can't get element of a SELECT type using this.value?

[abdfahim]

ok, I have get the solution ... I should put the value in the option, like

 

<option value="abcd">abcd</option>
