Trium918 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Is it possible to set a drop down menu to a particular width? I am asking because the long the text the more the menu expands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 There might some super-duper whizz-bang cross-browser-incompatible javascript/CSS wizard-level technique, but having less text in the dropdown options is superior from the usability/accessibility viewpoint. That way, you don't need to mess with a perfectly good, easily understood, form control behaviour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unidox Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Or use a css for a drop down and specify a width Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
