It is displaying twice because it is being told to do so. Once by the tep_draw_pull_down_menu() function, and again by your HTML code.
When you comment out the include(), the function loses the variables defined in the included script, thus there are no values in the drop-down.

Try this and see what happens:

<table><tr><td align=center class=\/\/hatever>

<?php

include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'currencies.php'); 

echo (tep_draw_pull_down_menu('currency', $currencies_array, $currency, 
'onChange="this.form.submit();" style="width: 100%"') . $hidden_get_variables . 
tep_hide_session_id());

?>

</td></tr></table>

You might also consider your form action="" tag to the filesystem path to index.php rather than using an HTTP:// request. (assuming the form and index.php are on the same machine)

Hi Pikachu2000
i have changed the catalog\includes\boxes\currencies.php in the following way

<?php
/*

  if (isset($currencies) && is_object($currencies)) {
?>
<!-- currencies //
          <tr>
            <td>-->
<?php
    $info_box_contents = array();
    #$info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_CURRENCIES);

#new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false);

reset($currencies->currencies);
$currencies_array = array();

while (list($key, $value) = each($currencies->currencies)) {
  $currencies_array[] = array('id' => $key, 'text' => $value['title']);

}

$hidden_get_variables = '';
reset($HTTP_GET_VARS);

while (list($key, $value) = each($HTTP_GET_VARS)) {
  if ( ($key != 'currency') && ($key != tep_session_name()) && ($key != 'x') && ($key != 'y') ) {
    $hidden_get_variables .= tep_draw_hidden_field($key, $value);
  }
}

$info_box_contents = array();
$dropdown= tep_draw_pull_down_menu('currency', $currencies_array, $currency, 'onChange="this.form.submit();" style="width: 100%"');
    $info_box_contents[] = array('form' => tep_draw_form('currencies', tep_href_link(basename($PHP_SELF), '', $request_type, false), 'get'),'align' => 'center','text' =>	tep_draw_pull_down_menu('currency', $currencies_array, $currency, 'onChange="this.form.submit();" style="width: 100%"') . $hidden_get_variables . tep_hide_session_id());


new infoBox($info_box_contents);
?>
 <!--           </td>

      </tr>
 currencies_eof //-->
<?php
  }
?>

and i have changed
catalog\includes\modules\new_products.php in the following way to display currencies dropdownlis

<table cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=0 border="0" >

                   <tr><td><font color=#000000>Currencies:</font></td><td width="300">
<?php include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'currencies.php'); 


?>             

                   </td></tr>

                  </table>
