Peter,
 
You can use style sheets for that, either create a class for the select
to use which has width: 200; in it, for example, and reference that with
CLASS="MyStyles"... or just add STYLE="width: 200;" to the <SELECT> tag.
I don't know the unit of measurement it uses, but it works on selects,
input boxes, buttons, etc.
 
Cheers,
 
Kim

Subject: [Javascript] SELECT size in IE



    This doesn't seem to be adjustable, but is there any way to fix the
width of a SELECT in IE so that no matter what entries are in it, it's
always the same size?  I'm currently filling it with a dummy entry made
of underscores when empty, and padding the name value when I put rows
into it, but without a fixed-width font, I'm not able to really maintain
the width of the box.  Any thoughts?

Cheers,

Peter Brunone
