DropDown Form - Unable to add numerous options in dropdown menu

OK I am just starting out here. I have been trying to add a product with two different options.

Option 1 - Size
Option 2 - Style

So when I am done adding all the sizes and styles I get one dropbox per size/style.

Example:

Product image

dropbox1: small dropbox2: medium dropbox3: large dropbox4: x-large dropbox5: xx-large

dropbox6: mens dropbox7: womens

add to cart button

I've got to be missing something because this defeats the purpose of a dropdown menu.
It clutters the page full of dropdown menus with one option in them.

I've followed the instructions to the T. I am using WordPress. Whenever I update/load the cart code onto the page, the result is all the options (sizes: small, medium, etc) individually side by side and not in one drop list. Although it looks ugly, that would not be a big deal, but it does not allow you to choose any options. It just defaults to
X-Large/Womens. Not exactly my key target market. Has anyone else had this problem? The process seems very simple so I can't imagine what I am overlooking.

I'm checking:

Let buyer edit qty
Variations which tell more about the product ordered

Option 1 Name is Size
Option 2 Name is Style

Option 1 Values are
Small
Medium
Large
X-Large
XX-Large

Option 2 Values are
Mens
Womens

Here is the code with javascript box unchecked, but I've tried it both ways:

<form action="http://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?c=cart;i=Delete;cl=210545;ejc=2" target="ej_ejc" method="POST" accept-charset="UTF-8">
<input type="hidden" name="on0" value="Size"/>
Size:<br/>
<select name="os0">
<option value="Small">Small</option>
<option value="Medium">Medium</option>
<option value="Large">Large</option>
<option value="X-Large">X-Large</option>
<option value="XX-Large">XX-Large</option>
</select>
<br/>
<input type="hidden" name="on1" value="Style"/>
Style:<br/>
<select name="os1">
<option value="Mens">Mens</option>
<option value="Womens">Womens</option>
</select>
<br/>
<input type="image" src="http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/ej_add_to_cart.gif" border="0" alt="Add to Cart" class="ec_ejc_thkbx"/>
</form>

I have been trying to get it to work all day long. If anyone else has had this issue and knows what I may be doing wrong, feel free to chime in.

It sounds like WordPress may be mangling your code after you paste it in; please see this help page for some helpful tips:
