long strings in list/menu boxes

Is there a way to get a list/menu box to resize as the page is resized and
for any long string that is an item in the list to be spread over two or
more lines in the same way as text in a table does.

Not in PHP - PHP is server side and has no knowledge of the client's window size
or anything else to do with the client.

You might try alt.html, or for client-side scripting, alt.html or, for client
scripting, comp.lang.javascript.
