A jump menu is a pop‑up menu in a document, visible to your site visitors, listing links to documents or files. You can create links to documents in your website, links to documents on other websites, e‑mail links, links to graphics, or links to any file type that can be opened in a browser.

Each option in a jump menu is associated with a URL. When users choose an option, they are redirected (“jump”) to the associated URL. Jump menus are inserted within the Jump Menu form object.

A jump menu can contain three components:

• (Optional) A menu selection prompt, such as a category description for the menu items, or instructions, such as “Choose one”.

• (Required) A list of linked menu items: a user selects an option and a linked document or file opens.

• (Optional) A Go button.
