HTML Select, OnChange on <option>?

[@sh]

Hi guys,

As far as I understand it, there is no possible way to add an
OnSelect/Onchange to an actual <option> within a select tag (to perhaps jump
to a page or run a DOM command), is this still correct with modern client
browser advances (obviously taking into account the incompatibilities of
this method with older browsers).

Cheers, Ash

Use the select element's onchange handler and it's selectedIndex
property instead.

Ahhhh ok cool, shame its not a little simpler though and accessible directly
from the <option> tag.
