Magento show products in category view as dropdown list

Here is what I want to do with Magento.
In category view, we can display products choosing either "by list" or "by grid". These are built-in options.
For one specific category, I would like the products to be displayed in a dropdown menu such as in the following picture. Plus, the user will not be able to select the grid or list view with the dropdown view as default.
built-in category view
dropdown menu showing products
I think I have to modify codes in list.phtml file. Could someone help me to implement the right code in order to get this result?
Add lens_type as a custom dropdown attribute with all lens types as attribute options/labels. Set 'Use in layered nvigation'to 'Yes'
Add this new attribute to the default attribute group.
Reindex database
Insert the products and select the lens type for each product.
Add the products to the desired category.
Set this category's option 'Is anchor' to 'Yes'
Now you have a layered category with a drop down option where you can choose teh lens type.

How to show all sub-categories articles?

Choosing menu item type to "Category Blog,List All Categories, and Category List" would result all subcategories link not direct to all articles of sub-categories.
But I want to show directly the all articles of sub-categories.
main-category
sub-categories
cat-1
article
article
.......
cat-2
article
article
.......
cat-3
article
article
.......
Now, how to show all articles of main-category?
In Menu Item Settings: Blog Layout -> Choose Include Subcategories "ALL"
UPDATE
FYI: This behavior can be set also globally for all Blog Layout Menu Items.
In Article Manager Options -> Blog / Featured Layouts Tab -> Include Subcategories.
first, find the column params in your database table ###_extensions which row name is com_content.
update the inner value in the JSON string, "show_subcategory_content":0 to "show_subcategory_content":1 that mean for 1 level subcategory support.
This is a global configuration.
If you just want one menu item to support that, find the item in table ###_menu and add "show_subcategory_content":1 in params which works.

Any ideas how to do that?
There's an image field already available in standard the category edit form. Look in the options slider.

Try to look in Mage files , magento already using grid into form,
look in this file : core/Mage/Adminhtml/Block/Catalog/Category/Tap/Product.php
Product.php is a grid , to check the result from back-office, check catalog->manage categories then click on category products tab
There are many tutorials on creating a grid.
Maybe this one will help?

How to display the products in a table format on the category page?

I have page of two columns with left bar. On the left side I have listed the categories and when I click on a category, the products display in the right column.
But there I have two options for displaying the products on the category page, one is "Grid" and the other is "list". And I want to display the products on the category page in a table form which will be my own custom table. So that it have one header row and then each row contains one product.
How will I do this?
There is such file as
(your template)/(your theme)/catalog/product/list.phtml
There you can edit your catalog template.
