AW: [Javascript] value of select

Well, you didn't have the opening <script> tag or a submit button. But
it worked once I added those.

<form action="..." method="post" name="orders" onSubmit="return
orders_submit()">
<select name="orders_status_id">
 <option value="">1</option>
 <option value="1">2</option>
</select>

<input type="submit" id="btnSubmit" name="btnSubmit" value="Submit Form" />
</form>


<script type="text/javascript">
function orders_submit()
{
       var orders_status_id      =
document.orders.orders_status_id.options[document.orders.orders_status_id.selectedIndex].value;

       if (orders_status_id == "1")
       {
               alert('test');
       }
}
</script>

sorry, my mistake when i copied the code,
of course i had the missing tags in my original script too:)
but still it won't work:(

it says:
document.orders.orders_status_id.options is empty:(
