onChange without using select?

[Evolution]

I've been googling for at least a coupe of hours trying to find
something that must not exist. I want to replace a pull-down menu
with a horizontal menu where the horizontal menu does not employ drop-
downs.

Thus: 1 2 3 instead of a vertical drop-down of 1 2 3.

<select id="beatles" onchange="updateBeatles()">
<option value="john">John</option>
<option value="paul">Paul</option>
<option value="george">George</option>
<option value="ringo">Ringo</option>
</select>

The onchange is necessary. The horizontal menu should resemble those
in e.g. Apple's Security System Pref where one may choose between
General, FileVault or Firewall.

If anyone can provide a link with a demo or 'try it yourself',
that is all I need. Many thanks.

Do you mean something like these:

Have a look at some of the drop-line menus.
