This is a browser issue. Having too many form elements in any(?) browser creates problems -- Mozilla, IE, Opera all exhibit this problem (under Windows at least).

Select state first, then show the list of counties within that state? -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * /* An infallible method of conciliating a tiger is to allow oneself to be devoured. -- Konrad Adenauer */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
