Why have a hard-coded width? If you are pulling the select-field text from a database, then you are probably using php to do it. As such, it is a simple matter to find the maximum length of the all the strings pulled and then set a width of the select fields to work. I suggest setting this value in a variable from within css -- I know css doesn't have variables, but that doesn't stop PHP from declaring one. Here's an example: http://sperling.com/examples/pcss/ This isn't a big problem.
