 Hi, i am using this drop-down list box code for my forum but members find it frustrating as it doesn't open up a new window.
I would appreciate if someone can help me with this code to make it open a new window when its click.

Code:
 
<form><select name=select size="1" style="background-color:#333333; font size:8pt; font-family:verdana;color:#98AFC7"
onchange="location.href=(form.select.options[form.select.selectedIndex].value)">
<option value="">Search Engine</option>
<option value="http://www.google.com.sg/">Google Search</option>
<option value="http://search.yahoo.com/">Yahoo Search</option>
</select></form>


Thanks in advance

Code: HTML
 

<form target="_blank">
