Yes there is. Just add target attribute to you form. eg. <form action="page.php" target="PAGE">

Then in the page.php add <base name="PAGE"> after <html> tag. Thats it basically 🙂 Now when you submit you form, it will update that page(it opens it if you dont have it open allready).

i tried this and it works fine with me using my opera browser

but i dont know why it cant get the value when im using IE

here's the code

<script>

function openwindow(){
openWin=window.open('compare.php','compare','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=390,height=170,top=100,left=100')
}
</script>

<form name=myForm action="compare.php" onSubmit='return openwindow()' target="compare">
<select size="1" name="teams" onchange="UpdatePlayer()" style="width: 100%" width="100%">
<OPTION value="" selected>[ Select A Team ]
<OPTION value=1>One
<input type="image" name="submit" src="images/submitbtn.gif">
</form>

what do u think would be the problem?

well as of now, your javascript function isn't returning a result, but your are asking for that result in your onsubmit event handler.
try this:
function openwindow(){
openWin=window.open('compare. php','compare','toolbar=no,location=no, directories
=no,status=no, menubar=no,scrollbars=no, resizable=n
o,width=390, height=170,top=100,left=100')
return (openWin);
}
