HTML FORMS AND PHP

[Rob]

I've been studying some tutorials but I can't seem to wrap my mind around
this...

When I implement a menu (in my case a drop down menu) how can I tell the
Action to do one thing if one menu item is chosen and another if another
item is chosen?

If I can't do it from the menu itself how do I process it in the page I
call?

I'm trying to writhe an "if" statment like this:

If ($TChoice = "Dothisselection")
How do I call a diffrent page?;
I've read through a few tutorials and I can't seem to figure out how to call
a diffrent page! I'm new to HTML and PHP so I'm sure it's painfully obvious.
Thanks for the help.

Check out include()

Instead of using an include(), I'd recommend using:

header("Location: $pagetogoto");

in the script that gets called. You can't do this from the page with the
menu, unless you use JavaScript fancies.
