Very worth reading

Comments:
It's just not as accurate or correct as the reader would like to see. The thing that's most damaging to the novice web developer is to see statments that are global or all inclusive/exclusive such as the one that was listed in this JavaScript FAQ Knowledge Base.

"Q67 How can I control the width of a select box?

You can only increase the width by padding out an entry with multiple ' '.

Alternatively you could have a dummy entry with '-------------' characters. "

Here's a method however, that is very helpful when attempting to control the select boxes size (in #'s of rows tall) or width (in cm or mm's wide): <keep in mind the 'size' parm here is for MULTIPLE select boxes, not used for width>

<select name="PayorCode" style="width:65mm" multiple size=7>

Further note, I actually learned this on a competitor's site.

Respectfully,
JA
