Master_Betty's is overly complex, this is perfectly valid HTML, and will work fine:

<select style="background-color:pink;color:lightgreen">
<option>1</option>
<option>2</option>
<option>3</option>
</select>

That produces a pink box with bright green text which looks something like this.
░░░░░▼
|------|
|1-----|
|2-----|
|3-----|
.————
Modify these(in the <select>, next to style=) to change colors:

background-color:box color
color:text color

Don't use quotes around the color names, color:"green" will not work. Preserve the semicolon(;) between the selectors, you need that.

I've used a horrible color scheme that makes my eyes bleed to show contrast, *please* change it before you use it.

You can use color names or hexadecimal color codes, here's my guide on codes:

I'm presuming you dont want to go to the trouble of learning HTML and how to do it properly?

This is how you do it on a normal webpage, no idea if it works on myspazz, but I'm sure you can tweak it so it does.

<form name="jump">
<bg color=black>
<text color=white>
<p align="center">
<select name="menu">
<option value="address of link">Text that will appear in the choices</option>
<option value="address of link">Text that will appear in the choices</option>
<option value="address of link">Text that will appear in the choices</option>
<option value="address of link">Text that will appear in the choices</option>
<option value="address of link">Text that will appear in the choices</option>
</select>
<input type="button" onClick="location=document.jump.menu.options[document.jump.menu.selectedIndex].value;" value="GO">
</p>
</form>
