Help
As you may have guessed, all I'm trying to do is use a group of radio buttons as navigation :
The user chooses their desired option through the radio group, presses 'Submit', and the user is directed to the appropriate HTML page.
I've been scanning through my textbooks and Google, but cannot find a solution. I am now thinking this is probably going to take some javascript wizardry?
Can anyone help?
Using a radio button and submit button as a link
Choose option, click 'Go', end up on desired page....?

javascript or php, or both. I would be wary of a js only solution as if the browser doesn't have javascript then it is unusable.
I can knock out an example later. It's pretty simple.
Although I must warn, funky navigation isn't always best.

Cheers TJ.
The navigation isn't a major element of the site, just of one page, so I'm hoping it will work okay.

I'm interested to have a look at this. Neat, no doubt, and as TJ said, slightly problematic, but still neat.

Yeh you would just make a php page which requests which button they selected then uses a header relocation to send them to the desired page. 5 min job

I'd beef up the php a lot to be more secure, but this shows you the concept. I'll get the javascript done soon.
Example Form
index.html (595bytes)
Number of downloads: 22
SIMPLE PHP
process.php (46bytes)
Number of downloads: 14
JAVASCRIPT
[Coming soon]
