Question HTML selection list with fixed width 

Forum: Guides to HTML
Date: 2001, Oct 22
From: Dante Tang <dantetang>

I am developing a HTML form with 2 selection lists and 2 buttons. One of the selection list is placed on the left and the other is on the right. The 2 buttons are placed between these 2 selections lists. Here are the HTML tags:

The right list has 10 items while the left list is empty at the beginning. The 2 buttons are used to invoke JavaScript and move items between these 2 selection lists.

However, I found that the width of the left list is too small when it is empty. And when I move items to it, it's size will be changed dynamically according to the longest item in the list.

I have searched for the HTML Tag SELECT, but I found that there is no property to set the width of a selection list...

Does anyone know how to create a selection list with fixed width? And can it work properly in both Netscape and IE?

Any advice or comment is welcome. Million Thanks in advance.

Dante
