Dear all,

I have one select which lists one visible element. I want this select
can show scrollbar after I click its down arrow, so that i can use the
scrollbar to select the element i want.

I test it on windows IE. The scrollbar will be shown when the select
has more than 30 elements, otherwise it won't show scrollbar. I don't
want the list to be that long. I hope that the scrollbar can be shown
when the number of elements is 8.

I don't know if there is a simple way to solve this problem.

I really appreciate for the help!!!

Jenny

Try the SIZE attribute:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.6
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms535893.aspx

Note 1: It may be ignored by the browser, especially if the browser uses a
control for which that doesn't make sense.

Note 2: It may display the select element as a list box in IE.
