Hello forum,

I am pretty new to this so I would really appreciate your help. I have the below code: 

<select id="dynamic_select">
  <option value="" selected>Pick a Website</option>
  <option value="http://www.google.com">Google</option>
  <option value="http://www.youtube.com">YouTube</option>
  <option value="https://www.gurustop.net">GuruStop.NET</option>
</select>

<script>
    $(function(){
      // bind change event to select
      $('#dynamic_select').on('change', function () {
          var url = $(this).val(); // get selected value
          if (url) { // require a URL
              window.location = url; // redirect
          }
          return false;
      });
    });
</script>

On my page it looks like this: 

Untitled.png.5dbc796ec05da1225db533eefd46d28d.png

My question is, how can I link this code to an image so when you click on said image, the drop-down appears. So you can only see this selection after you press on the image.

Thank you very much in advance for the help!

Here you go.. 

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeBackground( image )
{
 document.getElementById( 'duck' ).style.backgroundImage = "url( " + image + " )";
}
</script>
<style>
#duck { width: 500px; height: 500px; color: red; text-align: center; font-size: 50px; background-image: url( "duck1.jpg" ); }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<select id="duck">
<option onclick="changeBackground( 'duck1.jpg' );">Duck 1</option>
<option onclick="changeBackground( 'duck2.jpg' );">Duck 2</option>
<option onclick="changeBackground( 'duck3.jpg' );">Duck 3</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>

I tried it with Firefox only.. So you will have to check whether it works also in Chrome, IE and Opera by yourself..
