dropdownlist and table column width in Mozilla?

I found that the width attribute in Mozilla is different in IE. In
Mozilla, if the content in dropdownlist's list or table <td> cell is
wider than the width attribute, Mozilla just enlarge the width. Anyway
to make Mozilla behave the same as IE?

You don't have a URL to demonstrate what you really mean?

For <td>, that's the defined behavior unless table layout is set to fixed
(which is a CSS issue). Don't you think IE does the same?

For <select>, there is no width attribute in HTML specifications, so
all bets are off. Are you telling us that Mozilla has copied the
Netscape 4 oddity of recognizing such an attribute?
Anyway to make Mozilla behave the same as IE?


Ask Microsoft to fix IE? Allow three years for delivery, and prepare to
buy a new computer, since the new IE will be shipped along with a new
"operating system", which will require new hardware.

Hi, I can't get my cell widths fixed in a table in IE6. In Mozilla it works, see http://www.xs4all.nl/~margreeh/aa.html . It's the blue cells that remain fixed at 20pt widths in Mozilla but not in IE. The HTML was generated with Mozilla's Composer. Can anyone help getting this to work in IE? Thanks already, Bart.
