I don't know if we have enough information (the link below appears to be broken), but you might try adding an onclick event handler to the DDL, like this:
<select onclick="window.event.cancelBubble=true;"
This is only for IE, so you might want to include a browser or object check. Let me know if this helps...

Subject: [thelist] IE select value in drop down but clicks on map
Hi there,
I have a nasty little problem, as so often, only with IE. Here is an
screenshot to better illustrate the problem. http://
geodata.grid.unep.ch/screenshot_13.png
The map is clickable (to enable zoom in and other functions). But in
this case, I would like to select a value from the drop-down list,
which displays as a "drop-up" list because of not having enough space
downwards.
Now, when I click to select a year, IE interprets this as a click on
the map, instead of just a selection within the box. It sends the
request to the server and the server does what it is supposed to do.
But the selection of the year still wasn't successful.
Any way to avoid that IE confusion?
Thanks for any hints!
Stefan
