This is ridiculous!
I just tried setting the width for the option
#xxxxx select option{
width: 500px;
}
And it works in FF but not IE :(

Because it's IE and IE often does things its own way which can be a PITA
but something you just have to live with. As far as I know, there's no
way
around your problem in IE - you either give your select a width wide
enough to cover the longest option, reduce your option text, or put up
with IE truncating the options.
