I tried this and it works.

On your page you need to mark the places to which you want to jump with <A 
Name="foo1"> <A Name="foo2"> etc.  To jump to those places, place this list 
on the page.  Select the place to which you want to jump and click, "Send 
me."

<form>
<select name="list">
<option selected value="#foo1">
links
<option selected value="#foo2">
top
<option selected value>
- Select A Site -
</select>
<input type=button value="Send Me!"
onClick="top.location.href=this.form.list.options[this.form.list.selectedIndex].value">
</form>

Hope this helps
