Hi - brand new here and just getting started with webpages. I've figured out the basics - how to make a couple dropdowns, submit buttons etc.

However this case has me stumped. I have 2 drop down selections - the user picks 1 from each - and then a submit button to match those 2 results to a certain youtube video.

For example:
The first dropdown could have "Mom", and "Dad", and the second could have "kid1" and "Kid2" - each combo would link to a different video after clicking the submit button (that would have those 2 people in it). I can't figure out how to write code to match the criteria to a certain link sad.gif

My apologies if this is to simplistic for here..

Are you trying to use Javascript only? Or, is a server side language being used also? (ASP, PHP, Java....)

When you click a submit button the form is submitted and the data sent to the server for processing. If you are not using a web server then you need to use a regular button, not a submit button. And, you have to use Javascript for all your processing.
