[WSG] Forms - Drop down width

2008-10-15 Thread Likely, James A.
Hello, I am working on a registration form and found a problem with how IE7 handles the drop downs. If I set a width in the CSS on the drop down, the text will not wrap and be cut off. I don't want to have to set a full width as the drop down is reminder answers and will be a bit long. Does any

AKAIK drop-downs are one line only, i.e. there is no way to make text wrap. The usual solution is to set the title attribute of each option element so that at least the user can hover over an option to see its full text, but it's a sub-optimal solution really. Regards, Damian Edwards Microsoft

From what I can tell Safari 3.1 for Windows and Google Chrome use exactly the same version of WebKit (according to their respective user agents anyway), so they should render identically. JavaScript DOM support is a different matter though. Regards, Damian Edwards Microsoft MVP | ASP/ASP.NET

They are different engines from a JavaScript DOM perspective. So while they both support most of the same JavaScript DOM features, there are differences so you need to exercise the usual caution. I don't know what the differences are exactly but I've seen sites that have JS fail in Chrome

Not from what I've seen - safari (pc based) can be fine, chrome not. I'd have to go through my history somewhat to link theese pages/sites but if you must have the proof... At the end of the day never assume 'just cos one works another similar will'. Chrome may be based on something, doesn;t

Could you use spans or divs (inline) to add title/other descriptive tags? I'm planning a voluntary site for a day nursery and am looking to make it perfect, as a portfolio piece but as a learning platform also. In other words I'd appreciate others more experienced opinions. Regards Jon
