well sure, the hyperlink is better
jeff, thanks for your answer too, plenty of good reasons
aardvark, i was prompted to reply by your comment
"but that's *not* a form the way you're using it..."
in the context of the discussion, a chapter and verse dissection of valid
forms and hyperlink targets, some people might have got the wrong
impression
obviously a jump menu is a form
how to (mis)use it is a different subject
i like to keep the two concepts separate
also, i was playing devil's advocate, trying to balance your strident
position
and you're such a joy to argue, er, exchange ideas with
i actually have a spare rolodex, if you want it
you can't buy those things no more
