I just began reading this thread, so I hope I'm understanding what's going on. I looked at your screenshots, but I didn't see that your code was posted anywhere. A few thoughts come to mind. First, I always use CSS on my selects and they work fine in IE and NS, so I can't see that CSS is at fault. Second, in my experience, NS is famous for doing this to select boxes if there are no form tags around it. Do you have form tags? Even if you're just using JavaScript, you have to have the tags, even if they are void of any attributes. Third, I agree regarding your opinion of NS (but that's a whole 'nother thread!). Anyhow, HTH!
