<FORM name="MediaForm">
<select NAME="VidChange" onChange="{document.MediaPlayer.FileName = document.MediaForm.VidChange.options[document.MediaForm.VidChange.selectedIndex].value}">

<option VALUE="http://davidmorin.net/clips/david.mpg">ethan at bat
<OPTION VALUE="http://davidmorin.net/clips/david.mpg">test
<OPTION VALUE="http://davidmorin.net/clips/david.mpg">test
<OPTION VALUE="http://davidmorin.net/clips/david.mpg">test

<OPTION VALUE="http://davidmorin.net/clips/david.mpg">test
</SELECT>

that is the dropdown, use the anchor syntax to provide links instead

Code:

<a href="url">Link</a>

or you can use a list

Code:

<ul>
     <li><a href="url">Link</a></li>
     <li><a href="url">Link</a></li>
     <li><a href="url">Link</a></li>
</ul>
