Setting the visible height of a <SELECT>dropdown ?

[maverick]

Hey everyone,

How can I Set the height of a <SELECT(dropdown) to a specific amount of rows ?

there are 10 choices but I only want the dropdown to show 5 at a glance and the rest through the scroll bar...

Any Ideas ?

Thanks! much!

This makes it into a listbox,
I want to keep it a dropdown,

I want one item to show, and the dropdown to only expand to 5 items, but still be able to scroll to see the rest...

Thanks

I don't think this is possible - the browser drops down the number of options it thinks best, depending in the space available.
