  • Guest, before posting your code please take these rules into consideration:
    • It is required to use our BBCode feature to display your code. While within the editor click < / > or >_ and place your code within the BB Code prompt. This helps others with finding a solution by making it easier to read and easier to copy.
    • You can also use markdown to share your code. When using markdown your code will be automatically converted to BBCode. For help with markdown check out the markdown guide.
    • Don't share a wall of code. All we want is the problem area, the code related to your issue.

HTML Dropdown list not working on mobile

HTML: 
<select onchange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)">
    <option class="disabled">Buy the paperback</option>
    <option value="http://www.amazon.com">Amazon</option>
    <option value="https://blackwells.co.uk/">Blackwells</option>
    <option value="https://www.bookdepository.com/">Book Depository</option>
    <option value="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/">Barnes & Noble</option>
</select>

Can anyone tell me why this dropdown selection list isn't working on mobile? When I select an item, it just ... doesn't do anything - it doesn't take me to the chosen webpage. This is on my Wordpress site. It works brilliantly on desktop.

Thanks!

The problem is pop-up blocker. I just tested it on my website and it is working on my Android, firefox and chrome. I don't know anything about other browsers bcos I only use firefox and chrome.
