Hi All,

I am working on an application which is browser neutral (or atleast is supposed to be). I have a bunch of drop down boxes which have extra-long text.

Now in IE, the select drop down is truncated correctly to the length of the drop down (as specified in the CSS), however, Netscape and Mozilla show the entire length of the text.

Does anyone have a clue about how to standardize the drop down across all three browsers ??

Thanks in advance

Did you try setting the width of each option element specifically?
There are some problems with NS re the passing down of CSS attributes to child elements, maybe that's what's biting your.
