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.

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.
