Links with Description Help

[Agent Moose]

I am trying to put the Drop-down Menu thing with Descriptions in a Table. I have the table with three Columns...If you go Here (http://z11.invisionfree.com/MCtest/index.php?http://s11.invisionfree.com/MCtest/) You can see what I am trying to do at the bottom of that page. All I need to add is the Catagory part. How would I do that?

Here is the code I am useing...I haven't changed any thing with it yet...

<!--MC Radio V2(Shorty)-->
<div class="tableborder"> <div class='maintitle' align='left'>Active Radio X</a></div> <table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4"> <tr> <th align="center" width="23%" class='titlemedium'>Station</th> <th align="center" width="32%" class='titlemedium'>Description</th> <th align="center" width="20%" class='titlemedium'><center>Genre</center></th> </tr> <tr> <td class="row4" align="center">

window.location=selectedopt.value
}

displaydesc(document.form1.select1, thetext1, 'textcontainer1')

</script>

</td></table></div><br>

Also, How do I make it so that the window opens in this size:
width=747
height=462

I already tried adding it like this:

<option selected value="http://www.1club.fm/clubfm_media/v42.aspx?station=activex" target="newwin" width="747" height="462">Active Radio X</option>

I'm not quite sure what you mean by the "Category part" not being added? To answer your second question, you'll need to find the line:


window.open(selectedopt.value)

and change that to:


window.open(selectedopt.value, "", "width=747px, height=462px")

See the bottom of this page (http://www.javascriptkit.com/jsref/window.shtml) for additional window attributes you can use.

The catagory part, I ment genre, but yea. There are three columns in the table I made. The first one is for the Drop-down menu, the second column is for the description, and the third is for the genre. I want the genre to be like the description, change with the option that the person chooses. Here is the code so maby you can figure out what I am talking about...

Thanks if you can help.

I will make it easer for people to understand what I am saying.

How do I have a nother section that changes with the drop-down option like the description. Basicly, just add another description?
