Question

Need the three “Options” to be hyperlinks that submit the “choice” form. When submitted, I would like the value to be the text of the option selected (i.e. value=Option1, Option2 orOption3) and all three to have the same name. (i.e. name = Options)

I saw this and some other posts here, but did not work with my set up – many “hyperlink inputs” within the form.

I’m also using JQuery now, if it can be done using that library, I saw some posts on their forum about this but not sure about the answers….

Any help is appreciated.

<form action="cgi.exe" method=POST name="choice">  
     <tbody>                    
         <tr>                    
           <td>Option1</td>
           <td>Option2</td>
           <td>Option3</td>
         </tr>
    </tbody> 
</form>

You could just apply styles to your submit button to make it look like a link and avoid javascript altogether.

<input type="submit" style="background-color: #fff; border: 0; text-decoration: underline; color: #00c;" name="submit" value="Option1">
