Re: select box link and jump to selected category

hi cricket,... 
this is what I got so far: 
it's kind of works,... but then again not completely,.... I'm loosing categories value: 

<?php echo $this->Form->create('', array('id'=>'FormId')); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input("categories" , array('label' => false, 'type' => 'select', 'value'=>$categories, 'options'=>$categories)) ?>

<script type="text/javascript">

$('#FormId select').change(function(){ 
    window.location.href = ('/videos/category/' + $(this).val());
})

</script>
</form> 

this is output: 
<form action="/videosid="FormIdmethod="postaccept-charset="utf-8"><div style="display:none;"><inputtype="hiddenname="_methodvalue="POST" /></div> <divclass="input select required"><select name="data[Video][categories]id="VideoCategories">
<option value="0"selected="selected">general</option>
<option value="1">arts</option>
<option value="2">autos</option>
<option value="3">animals</option>
where it should be 
value=arts 
value=autos 
etc...

That's because you're passing the ID of the form, not the select
widget. It's the select that changes.
