Hello,

I'm thinking to use this code on my website for long list of links and I'd like to know will Google follow links in this JS list:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!--
function goto_URL(object) {
window.location.href = object.options[object.selectedIndex].value;
}
//--></SCRIPT>

<FORM>
<SELECT NAME="selectName" onChange="goto_URL(this.form.selectName)">
<OPTION VALUE="apage.htm">A page
<OPTION VALUE="bpage.htm">Another page
</SELECT>
</FORM>

Thanks.

The links may well get crawled because they are in the form of a url -- and googlebot eats up anything that looks even close to a url, no matter where it's found. But I don't think PR will be transferred in this case. I might be surprised by this some day, Google certainly might transfer PR -- how could we know with only the toolbar to guide us, eh?
