send form to php & open a window

[mike1234]

I'm new at this. I have an html form with two dropdown menus. When someone makes a selection from a dropdown box and hits submit I need it to open a different page depending on which selection they made. It seems like it should be really simple but I can't do it. Please help!

on the form processing page:
<?
if ($dropdown == 'option1') {
header ("location:http://www.whatever.com/option1.html");
}
if ($dropdown == 'option2') {
header ("location:http://www.whatever.com/option2.html");
}
?>

or you could simply put the content of both option pages in one single page and do:

<?
if ($dropdown == 'option1') {
// echo option1 stuff
}
if ($dropdown == 'option2') {
// echo option2 stuff
}
?>

this would be faster, the header() function slows thing down a bit
