How can the number of records in a particular option be shown in a drop down menu. The values are obtained from a flat text file. Example <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.batchmates.com">www.batchmates.com</a><!-- w -->. When one sees the year wise list, he gets to see how many users are registered for that particular year.
