Justin,

You have to have something in your form that executes the JavaScript.
Try
adding "onClick=submitForm()" to your option tags.  That may not work
but
there should be something similar.

I'd like to say though, that as an end user and fellow web designer,
this
could be a really annoying feature since it is not typically expected
that
selecting a drop down option will take you someplace else.  Just a
thought.
