element onChange javascript not working

Question

<select name='cmg_select'  onChange="javascript:window.location.href='index.php?'+this.value">
    <option value='pening'> pening </option>
    <option value='complete'> complete </option>
    <option value='pening'> pening </option>
</select>

The concatenation is not working.

And you shouldn't have two items with the same label and value. — Pekka

Remove the javascript: portion
Remove the href portion

The result :

< select name='cmg_select' onchange="window.location='index.php?'+this.value" >

Try this instead

<select name='cmg_select' onChange="window.location.href='index.php?'+this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">
<option value='pening' > pening </option>
<option value='complete' > complete </option>
<option value='pening' > pening </option>
</select>
