Re: <select> Drop-Down List not 'dropping'

Show all headers | View raw

Hi Evertjan & Gregor:

    Regarding the <select> element's onfocus/onblur actions:

    a.    *Without use* of  the 'size' clause these actions do not destroy 
the layout of the screen, *but* an extra 'click is needed to display the 
dropdown list.

    b.    *Using* the 'size' clause, these actions modify/disrupt the screen 
layout, *but* the drop-down list is automatically shown on focus, and 
onblur, the screen is restored to its original state.

    I guess I'm going to carry on with solution a.  because its easier than 
changing my whole page to accommodate the annoyance in para b. above.

    ... and I'm left wondering *why* these differences even occur ??

Thanks for your assistance.

-Mel
(and, at least I didn't instigate a flame-war this time -- so far)
