I've used the following to size the items (you aren't restricted on
using in, could be px, or cm, etc.

1)  <select
    style="width='2 in'" name="D1" size="1">

_OR_

2) before  the </head> tag

    <!-- this sizes all select boxes the same on the page -->

 <style>
 SELECT {
 width='2 in'
 }
 </style>
 </head>

_OR_

3)

 <style>
 .select2in {
 width='2 in'
 }
 </style>
 </head>
 ...
 <select
   class="select2in" name="D1" size="1">

To fix the size of a select box, you can put in an OPTION tag that
consists
of OPTION Value="" >&nbsp;.........</OPTION>  You can then use a
JavaScript
event handler for the onLoad event to remove the empty OPTION entry from
the
select box.

function handleOnLoad()
{
    // remove the placeholder blank line
    for(i=0;i<document.rfqCreate.selectedSuppliers.options.length;i++)
    {
        if (document.rfqCreate.selectedSuppliers.options[i].value == "")
            document.rfqCreate.selectedSuppliers.options[i] = null;
    }
}
