>From a usability perspective, that seems kinda goofy, doesn't it? The user can
make multiple selections but can view at most one of them? If you don't have a
lot of items to display, perhaps a set of checkboxes (multibox) would be better?
If you end up with HTML like:

<select multiple="multiple" size="1">
  <option>1</option>
  <option>2</option>
  <option>3</option>
  <option>4</option>
  <option>5</option>
</select>

IE 6 gives you a single displayed item with scroll buttons while Moz 1.4 just
gives you something that looks like a textfield but can be scrolled with the
arrow keys. Not something I'd be too happy about using...
