I've got two iframes on the same page:
* iframe1 contains the dropdown menu (select one only)
* iframe2 for displaying the results
I don't want to resort to using an input button. Here's the script for returning the results in iframe2 instead of iframe1:
<SELECT NAME="mainmenu" CLASS="menu" METHOD="POST" onChange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value,'iframe2')">
With FF and Chrome, clicking on a menu item works to return the result in iframe2. But the script doesn't work at all for IE. (Nothing happens on click.) Any ideas?

Okay, I've discovered the problem. Apparently, IE doesn't like hyphenated iframe names (value in javascript). I've changed the name of my target iframe from 'iframe-2' to'iframe2', and now it works in IE.
OLD:
<SELECT onChange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value,'iframe-2')">
NEW:
<SELECT onChange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value,'iframe2')">
