onclick location href link html does not load page in Safari

Question

I cannot get onclick  location href  link html   to load a new page in Safari  5 0 4    I am building a drop-down navigation menu using the  lt select gt  and  lt option gt  HTML tags  I am using the onclick handler to load a new page after a menu-item is clicked  but nothing happens in Safari   I have successfully tested in FF  amp  Opera   I know that there are many onclick bugs in Safari  but I haven t found any solutions that address this specific issue   You can see a sample of my code below    lt select gt       lt option onclick  location href  unit 01 htm   gt Unit 1 lt  option gt   lt  select gt    and   lt select gt       lt option onclick  location href   5 2   gt Bookmark 2 lt  option gt   lt  select gt    I do not  and prefer not  to have any javascript embedded in the head section of my HTML   I am developing the page for someone who does not know how to use javascript--so the simpler the code  the better      What JavaScript code would make the menu-item clickable in all-browsers    Please verify compatibility with IE

Use jQuery    I know you say you re trying to teach someone javascript  but teach him a cleaner technique    for instance  I could    lt select id  navigation  gt       lt option value  unit 01 htm  gt Unit 1 lt  option gt       lt option value   5 2  gt Bookmark 2 lt  option gt   lt  select gt    And with a little jQuery  you could do       navigation   change function         document location href     this  val          Unobtrusive  and with clean separation of logic and UI
