Simple asp code to select Month and Year, works in IE6. In IE7 after selecting Month, you cannot select from the Year list. This is a popup form, and the workaround is to click outside the popup form, then select year.
Code:
<%@ LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" %> 
<% 
'*  PopUp Window for selecting Month
'*********************** 
dim strKeep
If Request.Querystring("Page") <> "" Then 
   PageName = Request.Querystring("Page") 
   Session("PageName") = PageName 
Else 
   PageName = Session("PageName") 
End If 
If Request.Querystring("Form") <> "" Then 
   FormName = Request.Querystring("Form") 
   Session("FormName") = FormName 
Else 
   FormName = Session("FormName") 
End If 
If Request.Querystring("Element") <> "" Then 
   ElementName = Request.Querystring("Element") 
   Session("ElementName") = ElementName 
Else 
   ElementName = Session("ElementName") 
End If

If it's a difference from IE6 to IE7 it's most likely a JavaScript issue. Maybe try the JavaScript forum.
