'Chained Menu Select' not showing list items

[Adam1v]

First off, Hello to everyone, this is my first post, but ive found the website very useful.

1: Title: Chained Menu Select

2: URL: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...ainedmenu.html

3, Im currently trying to use the Chained Menu Select script (i have tried a couple of variants), but when i copy and paste the code between <form> and </form>, and also the <script> and </script> infomation relating to the .js files, nothing shows up in the actual drop down menus.
I dont yet have an example page for anyone to look at (i will tonight).

Ive made sure the <form> data is in the body and the <script> data is in the head, as well as the onload script:

I do have another drop down box which simply links to other pages. But i cannot see why the first drop down menu will be blank. I have made sure ive copied the .js files into the approperiate directory and that the code looks exactly at the right dir.

Does anyone have any advice?

i think ive found my problem, when ever the select script is within my <div id=content> it shows no data.

The page code is

<div id=content>
<H3 class=style7>Instrumentation </H3>

Please select the instrument from the drop down box below:

</FORM>

Its very important to select the correct product particular to the enviornment its going to be used in. Many factors may... 
<H3 class=style7>&nbsp;</H3>
<form name="listmenu0">
<table align="center"><tr>
<td><select name="firstlevel" style="width:150px;"></select></td>
<td><select name="secondlevel" style="width:150px;"></select></td>
<td><select name="thirdlevel" style="width:150px;"></select></td>
<td><input type="button" value="Go" onClick="goListGroup(document.listmenu0.firstlevel, document.listmenu0.secondlevel, document.listmenu0.thirdlevel)">
 <input type="button" value="Reset" onClick="resetListGroup('chainedmenu')">
</tr></table>
</form>
</div></div>

If i take out the content tag, it loads fine.

#content {
margin: 0 110px 20px 160px;
border-left: 1px solid #f0f0f0;
border-right: 1px solid #f0f0f0;
padding: 0 10px 0 10px;
line-height: 1.6em;
text-align: left;
