This is an old question  I know but for 2019 peeps  Like above if you just want to change the URL you can do this   lt select onChange  quot window location href this value quot  gt       lt option value  quot www google com quot  gt A lt  option gt       lt option value  quot www aol com quot  gt B lt  option gt   lt  select gt   But if you want it to act like an a tag and so you can do  quot   page quot    quot  bottom quot  or  quot  a 567 quot  use window location replace    lt select onChange  quot window location redirect this value  quot  gt       lt option value  quot    quot  gt back lt  option gt       lt option value  quot   list quot  gt list lt  option gt       lt option value  quot  bottom quot  gt bottom lt  option gt   lt  select gt
