Hi All,

I am encountering a small problem can we change the height of the drop down list items ? For me the height is adjusted according to the number values that are being binded from database. setting maximum records to the drop down list is not possible and i cannot create a custom control as well because the requirement is as such.

So is there any other way to limit the height of the values binded to my drop down ?

Thanks.

Thanks,
Radha Srikanth

0	Hi Actually in ASP.NET Dropdownlist you can not control display items height, unless your are building your own. But there are some crude ways you can control the same like onmouse over and out just set the item size like bellow. <asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" onmouseover="this.size=4;" onmouseout="this.size=1;" runat="server"> </asp:DropDownList> Thanks, Debata Chvrsri, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
