Drop down menu alignment

Hello everyone,

 

I have a drop down menu with a list of the 51 states using the <select></select> tags. The problem is when you click to select, the menu starts at the top of the screen instead of dropping down from the position of the menu element on the form. How do I correct this?

 

Thank you in advance!

You could *maybe* fix this with javascript (Im speculating, never actually tried). You would have to get javascript to read the contents of the drop down menu and then create and list said contents starting at the current mouse position (or at the dropdown list). You would do this when the menu is clicked, and have javascript return false so that it doesn't also open up the actual menu.
