"size = number [CN]
If a SELECT element is presented as a scrolled list box, this
attribute specifies the number of rows in the list that should be
visible at the same time. Visual user agents are not required to
present a SELECT element as a list box; they may use any other
mechanism, such as a drop-down menu."
In other words, the size attribute that you are using *tells* the
browser to show up to ten rows from the selection list at once. What
did you think it was for, out of curiosity?
