Need To Simulate OnClick From Select Menu

I have a dropdown list:

<select name="select" class="mapMenu" onChange="JumpToIt(this)">
<option selected value="none">Select a Tool --</option>
<option value="javascript:onCreatePrintable()">Print Map</option>
<option value="javascript:onFindLatLong()">Find Lat/Long</option>
</select>

That calls a script:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function JumpToIt(list) {
var newPage = list.options[list.selectedIndex].value
if (newPage != "None") {
location.href=newPage
}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

Which in turn selects an option from the original dropdown.

Works fine except.....

The options in the select call scripts that open new browser windows,
and when this occurs popup blockers swing into action and block the new
window. When I originally had the javascript calls as plain links such
as [HREF="javascript:onCreatePrintable()"] the popup was not blocked
since it was obvious that user was clicking the link. Now that I'm
trying to save much needed space by putting these links into a
dropdown, the popup blockers are not recognizing the user selection....
I guess. I was thinking the javascript could somehow simulate an
onClick to alleviate the problem. Any suggestions?
