When using a drop-down menu on the menu bar, is it possible to create a link to the name in the drop-down?
ie
menu button name=relevent info links
name on dropdown= abc.org

When clicking abc.org can it be linked directly to abc.org instead of to another page or post?

Thanks,
Art

you might want to check out a plugin call "page-links-to" which lets you create a page that fowards you to other links. This lets you have external or custom links in your page menu.

I think you wanna insert a jump menu in your sidebar having some options on it (for example abc.org , qwe.org, uht.org) so that when someone just selects an option it goes to given address even without clicking send/submit etc. If it is the case I have not seen a plugin for it but you can use following code to insert that list permanently in your theme:

Code for head section:

<script type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_jumpMenu(targ,selObj,restore){ //v3.0
eval(targ+".location='"+selObj.options[selObj.selectedIndex].value+"'");
if (restore) selObj.selectedIndex=0;
}
//-->
</script>


Code for body section:

<form name="form1" id="form1">
<select name="menu1" onchange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)">
<option>abc.org</option>
<option>qwe.org</option>
<option>uth.org</option>
</select>
</form>
