just wondered if there was a way to force the width of a drop down menu?
some options are causing my drop down box to be too long, which forces the table out of shape and screws the whole thing up. idealy I could just force the drop down to be XX pixels wide, options longer than this would just show as much as possible.
Or do I have to mess about working out how long each option is in characters and if its too long cutting it short?

You can set the width in pixels and the option will be truncated to fit, try this
<select style="width:50px;" >
<option>This is a really long option in a really short space</option>
</select>
Notice the difference between IE and Firefox when you click the option though - you may consider this unusable in IE.
Linear Mode
