In root I have two files: index.html and demo.html.

    So I found solution:

    It was way too easy… just changed onchange action in select menu to:

    onchange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value, 'nameOfTargetFrame')"

    and removed whole *MM_jumpMenu* code. Thanks for tips, I wouldn’t found it without them 🙂
