We built similar functionality into one of our applicatons using a combo box
that stores mapext coordinates as the values of the options. Then, we built
an onChange event for the combo box, that would submit the mapserver form
using the mapext coordinates from the combo box. 

Example of option tags:

<OPTION value="-180 -90 180 90">World</OPTION>
<OPTION value="-174 84 -11 35">Canada</OPTION>

If you need any other help/clarification, just let me know..

I needed to create a map where a list of regions could be selected and once
they are selected, the map would zoom into that region automatically
(similar to the canada atlas website where you can zoom into a certain city
or territory). I tried to figure out how this was done but I couldn't quite
understand. If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know. Any help is
appreciated. Thanks
