PHP vs Javascript with a select box

[chavodel8]

I'm hoping PHP will do this, but I may have to use Javascript. I have a select box and, upon someone choosing one of it's options, I want it to reload the same page with that option in the url:

$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "?opt=" . $option_name; 

kind of a thing. Any tips?
Thanks,

so what's wrong with that? looks fine to me...

you have to use the onchange() events into the select box

The above code is what I want to put in, but I don't know where to put it. I don't want to have a submit button of any type - just the select box. Thus when an option in the select box is chosen, it immediately goes to that URL.
I can put the above code in the form tag with action='above stuff', but I seem to still need the un-desired submit button. How can I skip that and immediately react to the select box choice?

Ah, this is what I'm looking for. Thanks! I'll play with it a bit.
