After hours of groping around I did find a syntax that kind of works -

<FORM ACTION="array1.html" METHOD="GET">

I figure if I variablize the file name then the select tag could input the
file name I need into this FORM ACTION statement. Is that the way to do this
or is there a preferrable method?

actually that 'action' element will need to be the
name of the cgi code that will know what to do with
the selection....

	<form action="SelectHost.cgi" method="POST" target="_top">
		<select name="sysname" size="1">
			<option value="linux1">linux1</option>
			<option value="sun1">sun1</option>
		</select>
	</form>

that will return

	sysname=linux1

if the user does not scroll through the menu...

Remember that 'raw html files' - foo.html - do not parse
the query strings handed to them in the 'GET|POST' methods...
