drop down list width

[ChrisSkidmore]

Can I control the display width of a drop down.

Some of the options are quite wide so I'd like it to work logically. About 150 pixels closed but when open display to the width of the options.

Am I asking too much??

Sorry but you cannot control dropdawn menu only size and font

I think I'd already come to that conclusion before posting but was still hopeful.

Many thanks anyway

Actually you can do it, but using css:

Code: Select all

<select style="WIDTH: 300px;"> bla bla</select>

Hi thanks -
I tried that one while hacking at it -
I forget which failed but it wasn't cross browser!
