On further investigation, I used webappname "opencms" and database
name "opencms", but the problem persists. It si caused by
JavaScript code in top_head.jsp which is:

  12   function loadBody() {
  13       var link = 
document.forms.wpViewSelect.wpView.options[document.forms.wpViewSelect.wpView.selectedIndex].value;
  14       window.top.body.location.href = link;
  15   }

i.e it tries to get the selected option from form "wpViewSelect",
but it is empty:

<form name="wpViewSelect" method="post" 
action="/opencms/opencms/system/workplace/views/top_head.jsp">
<td><select name="wpView" style="width:150px" 
onchange="document.forms.wpViewSelect.submit()">
</select>
</td>
</form>

In the top_head.jsp the code generating the selection is:

         wp.getViewSelect("name=\"wpView\" style=\"width:150px\" 
onchange=\"document.forms.wpViewSelect.submit()\"")


I wonder why nobody else has this problem ? My setup is pretty
standard:

Date:                27.10.2004 14:01:16
Used JDK:            1.4.2_04
Used Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/5.0.25
MySQL is 4.0.16
