Nope, still needs work.  Just hit that page with lynx and it won't follow
any of the links. I have seen JavaScript used to good effect in drop down
boxes like those to go ahead and do the submit automatically, and so long
as an actual submit button also exists for non-JS browsers it is a nice
touch. For an example of a working implementation, go look at
www.unitedmedia.com's comic strip selection gadget. Then ya know.... view
source, cut, paste.  The Internet Way! :-)
