I have gone through similar questions (answers) asked before. They do not have what I need. I need the width of my drop down to be constant all the time. Even when it drops down & items are wider than its width. The wider items should be displayed as a tooltip. How do you do this? And what is the deal with the select element? Why does every post have answers in terms of "select". I am using an asp dropdown. How do I use select with it? Anyway, here's my CSS for the ddl:\[code\].ddl2{margin-top: 10px;margin-bottom: 10px;border-style: solid;border-width: thin;border-color: Gray;height: 20px;max-width: 150px;}\[/code\]This works (only in firefox) when nothing is selected. As soon as the ddl drops, the selectbox takes the width of the widest element.
