and <option> tags, with some values.I have one requrement like this . On selecting one particular value from the combo box , i
have to print that value on the browser.
How can i achieve this . Examples are also welcome.

If you only have one value that needs to trigger a function and your values are being created dynamically by server-side code, then your server-side code will have to generate some javascript for you, too. In your <option> tag, create an event handler like this:

Then you can have your server-side code generate myfunc() to include a test for your particurlar value.
