<OPTION> tag using all the systems resources.

I am building a table of about 500 rows of text data from a recordset and about 300 of the rows have one OPTION tag with a value of N or Y. When the page first displays the OPTION control is not visible, after I scroll to the bottom and back up there scattered incorrectly in there column. I can not open any applications after that I get the system message there is not enough memory to run this program until I close IE. Running the page without the OPTION tag does not eat up the memory. Question is there a less memory intensive solution.
Thanks in advanced
Henry
 
radio buttons would probably be a less resource intensive solution, but why would you need 300 sets on just one page?

Try to use CheckBox instead of Option

Code:
Yes<checkbox name=g1>&nbsp;No<checkbox name=g1>

The purpose of the OPTION tag per row is to allow the business user to mark the rows that have been worked. After they mark them 'Y'es the query would no longer retrieve that record.
Thanks I'll try radio button with skepticism.
 
Sorry i mean to use radio buttons:

Code:
<INPUT type=&quot;radio&quot; name=g1>Y<br>
<INPUT type=&quot;radio&quot; name=g1>N
