display text with a select

[thibo1025]

I nead to be able to sort text otomatikally using a select:

<select name='name' onchange='text(this)'><option></option><option value="1">something</option><option value="2">something</option></select>

what kind script should I make after this ,

<script language='javascript'>function text(x) {var x = new Array();	x[1] = "some text";	x[2] = "some text";/* What do I put here? */}</script>

in order to make the text show?

I dont get what you want to do... can you explain it a little more please?

I want to do a OnChange function which displays text underneath the box.

<table border="0"><tr><td><select name="name" onchange="function_one()"><option value="0"></option><option value="1">some text</option><option value="2">some text</option><option value="3">some text</option></select></td><td><sciprt language="javascript"><!-- This is where I want a text to be dispalyed considering the value chosen form the select --></script></td></tr></table>

Now is it more clear? ( excuse me if I was not clear)
