You will have to do a lot of scripting by hand, but here's an example that may get you
started.

Copy and paste to a new blank page , between the body tags in code view. Then preview in
browser to see how it works.

<p align="center"><select id="setit" onchange="launchit()">
 <option value="">Select a Name</option>
 <option value="javascript:window.open('http://www.altavista.com')">AltaVista</option>
 <option value="javascript:window.open('http://www.yahoo.com')">Yahoo</option>
 <option value="javascript:window.open('http://www.google.com')">Google</option>
  </select>

<script language="javascript">
function launchit(){
eval(setit.options[setit.selectedIndex].value);
}
</script>
