Re: [WSG] Overflow on select or options
so no one can give me an answer on this one?
Even whether it not at all possible?
I want the text to overflow if the value of the option is greater than the width...

[WSG] Overflow on select or options
I have the following style
select, option
{
width: 250px;
overflow: visible;
}
but it still won't allow the select element below to overflow, anyone any ideas?
I am sure I had this working at some stage, or is this some quirk in IE that makes it
works sometimes, while it is not supposed to work at all?
Primary
product:
selected
value="#qProduct.pkIDProduct#">#qProduct.productName#

Re: [WSG] Form layout in CSS - left column background not extending ...
hhmm, no this is IE only - environment is controlled... I probably should have made that clear to start with.

[WSG] Form layout in CSS - left column background not extending ...
I have a form laid out in css, the left columns contain the headers for the fields, and the background should be grey, however it does not extend all the way to the bottom of the form when I have a multiple select which size is greater than the text on the left. I cannot come up with anything that would solve this issue, anyone any ideas? I can't provide any links as that would make HP an unhappy customer. I can provide the HTML and css.
