If anyone has a better solutions - PHP based would be great - that is
accessible, and better constructed than what I am working with; I would
love to  check it out.

My original post example was an in-a-pinch-gotta-get-it-done approach.  I
am all for ditching  my first attempt for something more accessible.  It
is going to become a significant part of a website soon, so it will be
very beneficial to make it top notch before hand.

I want to be able to use a custome image for the button, and a
select/drop-down box; other than that I’m all ears.

Thanks!
