    Shouldn't this work ? ...

    I'm not very good at js, so I'm guessing that I definitely have something
    wrong here ...
    <head>
    <script language="JavaS cript">
    function testFunc(form){
    var tmp1 =
    document.form.s ite.options[document.form.s ite.selectedInd ex].value;
    document.write tmp1
    }
    </script>
    </head
    .... <form method='post' name='form'>
    <select name="site" onChange="javas cript:testFunc( this)">
    <option value='#'>--- (Select Site) ---
    (there is a list here of <option value=".... > that is called
    from a db)
    </select>

    Anyway, nothing is happening onChange
    Where have I gone wrong?????

      You don't need the "javascript :" in the onChange event for starters, and
      your document.write statement should be
      document.write (tmpl);

              And you cannot do a document.write in an onchange without destroying the
              whole page.

              Do an alert(tmp1) or a mydiv.innerHTML = tmp1
