I have a drop down box on a page, it is for changing page numbers. atm I just pass in number for the page,

http://www.foo.com/bar.php?page=1

However, I need to now filter this

http://www.foo.com/bar.php?page=1&id=1

Whenever I try and add 'id=1' to the select on the form, it URL encodes it and then the link doesn't seem to work.

Code:
<form style="display:inline;margin:0px" name="fPage" id="fPage" method="get" action="<?=$PHP_SELF?>"><div class="bar">
    <?=pixel_text("black", "page ")?>
    <select onchange="document.fPage.submit();" name="page" style="width:45px; height:17px;">
      <?php
	for($i=1;$i<=$userPageCount;$i++) {
		if($i==$userPageNumber) $selected = "selected"; else $selected = "";
?>
      <option value="<?=$i?>" <?=$selected?>>
      <?=$i?>
      </option>
      <?php
	}
?>
    </select>
    <?=pixel_text("black", " of " . $userPageCount)?>
</div></form>

Need to add some more to the page it loads, so changed

<option value="<?=$i?>" to <option value="<?=$i . "?id=" . $id?>"

But ? and = come out as URL encoded, and the link fails.

I would've thought it would work as URL encoded anyway.. as it's going in as a URL?

me foncused!
