Maybe that will help you. It's only a simple "codemaker":
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
var b = 0, a, c, sn;
function A()
{
a = prompt("enter the nº of options");
sn = prompt("Enter the select name");
document.all.codi.innerText = "<select name=\"" + sn + "\">";
document.all.codi.insertAdjacentHTML("BeforeEnd","<br> ");
c = window.setInterval("Create()",50);
}
function Create()
{
var val, writ;
b++;
if (b > a)
{window.clearInterval(c)
document.all.codi.innerText += "</select>";
};
else
{val = prompt("Enter the value for " + b + " option:");
writ = prompt("Enter the external words for the " + b + " option:");
document.all.codi.innerText += "<option value=\"" + b + "\">" + writ;
document.all.codi.insertAdjacentHTML("BeforeEnd","<br> ");
};

}
</script>
<body onLoad="A();">
<div id="codi">
</div>
</body>
</html>
That creates the html code of a select tag. Then only copy/paste to the page. You can modify, implement, etc depending of what you need.
