It will work when you do it the easy way. (Why going for the hard way? I 
don't see why that's neccesary).

Just make a form like this:

<form action="http://www.goemerchant7.com/index.cgi">
<input type="hidden" name="ST" value="buy">
<input type="hidden" name="Merchant" value="chchemical">
<select name="ItemNumber">
<option value="MM2OZ">2 oz. Spray $4.25</option>
... enz.
</select>
<input type="submit" name="Action" value="add">
</form>

Easy, isn't it?

If this is not what you want, what do you want?
