This won't work with checkboxes, because then what happens if they select multiple boxes, where should it go? What you need to use are radio buttons.

CODE

<input type="radio" id="goTo" value="Page 1"/>Page one <br />
<input type="radio" id="goTo" value="Page 2"/>Page two <br />
etc...

Also, if you're using XHTML, make sure to close your line break tags:

<br />

and if you're not using XHTML, don't close your input tags.

this could prolly be done with a little java script but my JS is too rusty to come up with a maintainable, crossbrowser solution off the top of me head but id try something like this if you have a PHP enabled webserver

CODE

<?php
if ($_POST['tennis']=="1" OR $_POST['reading']=="1" OR $_POST['basketball']=="1" OR $_POST['boxing']=="1" OR $_POST['football']=="1" OR $_POST['cricket']=="1") {
    if ($_POST['tennis']=="1" AND $_POST['reading']=="1" AND $_POST['boxing']=="1") {
        header('Location: http://www.tennisreadingandboxing.com');
    }
    if ($_POST['tennis']=="1" AND $_POST['reading']=="1") {
        header('Location: http://www.tennisandreading.com');
    }
} else {
?>
<form id="myform" class="cssform" action="<?php echo $SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="POST">
<p>
<label for="comments">Hobbies:</label><br>
<input type="checkbox" value="1" name="tennis" /> Tennis<br />
<input type="checkbox" value="1" name="reading" class="threepxfix" /> Reading <br />
<input type="checkbox" value="1" name="basketball" class="threepxfix" /> Basketball <br />
<input type="checkbox" value="1" name="boxing" /> Boxing<br />
<input type="checkbox" value="1" name="football" class="threepxfix" /> Football<br />
<input type="checkbox" value="1" name="cricket" class="threepxfix" /> Cricket <br />
</p>
<div style="margin-left: 150px;">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
<input type="reset" value="reset" />
</div>

</form>
<?php
}
?>
