Try adding var before your local variable declarations, so your function
becomes


    function Navigate() {
        var item = document.nav.search.selectedIndex;
            itemval = document.nav.search.options[item].value;
        if (itemval == "x") return;
        window.location = "http://www." + itemval + ".com/";
}
