I spent 2 days trying to figure out how to set the width of a jump menu and finally found it here: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.macdesignonline.com/tutorials/dreamweaver/novdec02_jump.html">http://www.macdesignonline.com/tutorial ... _jump.html</a><!-- m --> <br />
<br />
Everything works great on a Mac, BUT ON A PC, the sub menu items don't reveal the entire line of text, but are cropped at the same width of the pulldown, sample here: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.smashart.com/superbrace/catalog.html">http://www.smashart.com/superbrace/catalog.html</a><!-- m --> <br />
<br />
Is there a way to fix this? <br />
<br />
the .css style code in dreamweaver: <br />
<br />
<style type="text/css"> <br />
<!-- <br />
.jump { <br />
font-family: Arial; <br />
font-size: 10pt; <br />
font-weight: bold; <br />
color: ffffff; <br />
background-color: ec6400; <br />
width: 112px; <br />
} <br />
--> <br />
</style> <br />
<br />
Thanks for any suggestions..<!--content-->I always program web pages in Notepad and found that if you specify a given pix width for a table you will lock in the specifications. Your code states table width="560" and you are using a bold type (Arial). I'm not real sure, but I think you shot yourself in the foot. I would work on the font size and the table size (use a percentage of screen width instead of an absolute value of pixels.<br />
<br />
Best of luck,<br />
