DropDown Width

I would like to set the width of the list of the drop down box to be wider
then the top of the control

Is that possible?

For that you would need to design a custom control.

We have a dropdown combobox, where some of the text is wider than the textarea. I cannot set the width of the SELECT any higher due to design restrictions on the company website. When clicking the dropdown box, I want the textarea (which unfolds beneath the dropdown) to expand to the widest element of the options. I can see that Netscape does this automatically, but how would you do it in IE?

The code below goes into the dropdown event handler for a standard combo box. It makes the dropdown as wide as the widest text entry. Unfortunately, this combo box is on the right edge of the screen, so if the user has a really wide entry, the dropdown expands off the right edge of the screen. Any suggestions on how to modify the code below to make the dropdown width expand to the left, instead of to the right? Thanks, Randy

I have a gridview with a dropdown list in an EditItemTemplate. I haven't set a width for the columns, so that they dynamically size according to the data displayed. When it goes into edit mode I want to make the dropdown lists a bit wider to allow for the width of the arrow, and widen the column accordingly. If I set the width of the dropdown list to a fixed unit such as 300px; then it widens the column accordingly. But if I...

I want to have a fixed width dropdown but the longer elements(whose length is greater than width of the dropdown) are getting cut. Now I also want to view the content of dropdown elements by moving mouse over them. Tried tool tips but it is not working with dropdown.Could there be any varible size dropdown part that takes the width of largest element but the upper part remains of fixed width.
