Okay, so I've got the following code for a small dropdown menu on my website:

<form name="jump">
<select name="menu" select style="font-size:10px;color:#000000;font-family:verdana;background-color:#ffffff;">
<option value="http://www.wildfiretheatre.com/_mgxroot/page_10796.html">Sydney, Australia (Beauty Queen of Leenane)</option>
<option value="http://www.atlantictheater.org/page.aspx?id=12016840">New York, USA (The Cripple of Inishmaan)</option>
<option value="http://www.martinmcdonagh.net/webmaster.html">Submit a production...</option>
</select>
<input style="font-size:10px;color:#000000;font-family:verdana;background-color:#ffffff;font-weight:bold;" input type="button" onClick="location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedIndex].value;" value="Get Info">
</form>

The form/code works just fine... only it opens the link in the same screen, meaning the visitors leave my page. I don't want that, I want the links to open in a new screen. I have spent hours trying to figure out how to do this, but I just can't.

Is there perhaps anyone who can just look at the code and magically know what I need to add/change to make the links open in a new window?

I have the box up on a testpage, you can see it here:

Thanks so much in advance!
