Preventing Search Engine from Indexing Dropdown Menu Items

Quick question....

I've got a dynamically created Web site that uses .jsp pages.  Within the 
pages is a dropdown menu that contains our navigation.  I'm implementing a 
search engine on the site and am finding that when it indexes the site, 
it's returning each and every page as a "match" because the word that I'm 
looking for appears in the dropdown menu on each page.  Anyone know how to 
get around this problem??

Thanks...your feedback will be greatly appreciated!

Linda
