Have you validated the page? Does HTML work?

Don't understand why you would convert to XHTML since:
1) XHTML served as XHTML does not work in IE
2) You are serving XHTML as HTML

You are using the xml declaration on your very first line. Only modern browsers know what to do with this. IE is not a modern browser and chokes on it, going into quirks mode. You can safely remove that line since you aren't serving XHTML anyway and it will make IE attempt to act like the rest of the world.

There is no such thing as "language="Java script" and you are not using the 'type' attribute. Change this:
<script language="Javas cript"> to this:
<script type="text/javascript">

None of this probably has anything to do with your drop down problem but, if it doesn't help now, it will help later.

Hi there, I recently created a Javascript pop-up menu in Dreamweaver MX and I'm having some trouble customizing it. After creating the menu, I saw that in the browser I use (Firefox), the cursor doesn't turn into a hand when you hover over the hyperlink items in the menu. I found a snippet of JS code to fix this, but I still can't seem to get the URL of each link to appear in the status bar at the bottom of the browser. I suspect this...

I've been working on a site with multiple <select> menus that are generated dynamically with PHP and Javascript and I've been using an AJAX approach. The javascript calls my php page, which hits a database, gets the information I need, then creates XML that is passed back and inserted into a blank <div> tag so you can't see the <select> before. Ex. of XML created: <Select name="test" onchange="action(this.form)"> <Option value =...
