I tried to make this work 

<select name="menu1" id="menu1">
<option value="http://www.espn.com">ESPN</option>
<option value="http://www.cnn.com">CNN</option>
<option value="http://www.abcnews.com">ABC</option>
<option value="http://www.cbsnews.com">CBS</option>
<option value="http://www.foxnews.com">FOX</option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
 var urlmenu = document.getElementById( 'menu1' );
 urlmenu.onchange = function() {
      window.open(  this.options[ this.selectedIndex ].value );
 };
</script>

I placed in the body

it works as a combo box but doesn't open the link

I am trying to have a combo box with jump to links

any suggestions

Hi,

What is the type of the Block? It shoudl be either Visual (I suppose it is), or Source type HTML.

Please publish online and give the link. Maybe you have another error somewhere in another Block that breaks all Javascript execution including this script.

I tried visual it doesn't show on preview
I tried source it doesn't show on preview
in source I put in type html and position startbody

however if I put the same code in block and also in visual then 2 instances show in preview 

then I delete the visual and in preview it shows one instance , but position is at top left of the window and I have no control over position

I am experimenting with it till I figure out how to make it work 

I also use a new page for my experiments

thank you

I put 1st visual doesn't show in preview

then 

I put source also doesn't show in preview

then

then I put source 1st then visual 2nd and in preview 2 instances show

then I delete source and keep visual then only one instance show and I can control the position as it is visual

Of course I don't why this happens but it works this way

Thank you for your help

You should always save the page to see the Blocks applied in preview. I've used your code as is to put into a Code Block Visual and it shows fine in preview, and opens pages on selection. If it does not work the problem is outside of this script.
