Frontpage is generally a poor editor. Dreamweaver is better, but still allows you to create horrific messes if you don't take the time to learn it properly instead of frankensteining it.

Using standards will help your page work in all browsers. But it does require some degree of attentiveness and attention to detail. A jump menu is not going to work if you don't tell it what to do.

why is it bad to use frontpage? does dreamweaver make it viewable in all browsers?

And the jump menu is nabbed from someone else's Dreamweaver site? You're missing the function that controls it, and you have the tags in the wrong place. The action should be in the form, and should be to a JavaScript function that actually exists.

For one, I can't see the menu at all, using Mozilla Firebird. I see you've used Frontpage, which is a big no-no if you want your code to work across many clients.

I can't spot the specific problem in the code... all I can suggest for now is you validate the code, preferably to xhtml 1.0, and avoid Frontpage.
