hi,
i see that you have 10 option items but only 9 textdisplays. make sure to have one for each corresponding items.

Thanks but it quits working the as soon as there are more then 4 descriptions... if I only have 4 it shows the rest as undefined.. but as soon as I try for more then 4 the description doesn't show...
