Why have I done the above? Because I was looking for an example of a
drop down box that would display the 'firstlastname' field but pass
the staff_ID field. This was the first example I found that appeared
to work. If you have an alternative solution I would be more than
happy to change the code above.
You're still missing the point. Anthony is asking about this specific
function:

Why are you wanting to submit the form when the listbox selection
changes?
It appears the answer is that you have copy/pasted this html from
somewhere and you do not know why the code was written to cause the form
to be submitted when the selection changed. is that correct?
