If I got what you want, something like this should work:
<a href="#" onclick="document.getElementById('theSelect').focus
();return false">click me</a>
<select name="theSelect" id="theSelect"
style="position:absolute;left:-9999px">
<option>foo</option>
<option>bar</option>
</select>
Probably you can't focus a "visible:hidden" element.
