Sorry but I'm not sure I understand your question fully. Are you asking
us how to restrict the list of species available, or how to add to it?
What is the problem in HTML/JavaScript that you refer to?

The list of second species and types is restricted to only those
combinations that have corresponding datasets in the homology mart
tables. If you can't find a particular combination, then it is because
there is no dataset for that combination.

(The vertical bar separation is unique to Compara mart and is not
intended for use in other marts - it's a temporary solution whilst we
think of a better way of doing things.)

cheers,
Richard
