Setting the number of elements in selectboxes...

[Kjell Breimo]

Hi,

I have made a selectbox (<Select....><o ption...>...) with size=1(It has to
be size=1). It contains about 40 elements. It is placed on the top of my
webpage abd I would like to see as many elements as possible when it is
opened. As default there is only 12 elements that shows and then I have to
scroll down to the other 28 elements.

Is there a way to set the selectbox to show more than 12 elements when its
opened?


Regards,

Kjell Breimo.

No, the number of items shown on a drop-down (<select>) menu is entirely up to
the browser.
