Guest Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 ...and just am not finding it. I've tried changing the width of the boxes in "boxes", tried changing the width manually in the "manufacturers" file. Nothing seems to be changing the width of that drop-down selector. Can anyone help? I'm sure I'm being stupid here and just overlooking something horribly obvious, but I really am frustrated. Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Did you take a look at the /includes/application_top.php? Look for define('BOX_WIDTH', 125); // how wide the boxes should be in pixels (default: 125) -Al Is this what you needed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Just read this again. You want the Select BOx. Look near line 36 in the /includes/boxes/manufacturers.php. It is set to 100% as the default. So that would make it 100% of the box width. (my last post) -Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Hi Al, Actually, your first post was the one I needed. Changing it from 125 to 90 did exactly what I needed. THANKS!!! Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Good, sometimes I read through entirely too fast. Can't wait to see your new site. -Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolcrazy Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 I don't think you can set the width of a drop down menu. It is determined by the amount of text that is in it. Steve ------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 Ordinarily this would be true, but because the box text is controlled by a style, which affects the actual size of the text, you do have a certain amount of leeway. At the default width of 125, at least with my manufacturer names, I had a WHOLE lot of blank space in that dropdown. Now that I've narrowed it down I don't have nearly as much blank space.
