Show Just Some Options In In Html Drop Down List

How can I show 10 option out of 100 in the drop down list and the rest to be available using scrollbar? thanks a lot.

Solution 1:

<select multiple="multiple" size="10">

Solution 2:

You could try this little trick...

<selectmax="2" onmouseover="this.size = 10" onmouseout="this.size = 1">

it effectively makes your select drop down into a list on mouse over and puts it back on mouse out.

it's cheating and can mess up your html positioning, but it works.

Edit: I'm pretty sure you can't change the size of the menu displayed when you click a select, this is determined by the browser and not controllable by the page.

Solution 3:

I think <select multiple="multiple" size="10"> produces a list, not a drop down...
