Hi Aaron:
I tried using a stylesheet but perhaps I am doing it wrong:
My stylesheet class looks like:
.selectStyle
{
font-size: 7pt;
font-family: verdana;
font-weight: bold
max-width: 110;
}
and the html:select looks like:
<html:select property="addressstate" size="1"
disabled="<%=
billingForm.getFormEditFields() %>" styleClass="selectStyle">
<html:options collection="states"
property="value"
labelProperty="label" styleClass
="selectStyle" />
</html:select>
The 2 problems I have is:
1. The text showing up in the collection is not showing up with the bold
weight.
2. It ignores my max-width 110 and still decides to show about 300 pixels
for the states collection
:-(
thanks,
Theron

Or, use a stylesheet! :)
That's a good one actually. Problem is though, you'll never see what's
cut off by the width in IE. NS6 actually shows the whole thing when it
drops down. Quite cool NS!.
