javascript - Width of an Option Tag -

good afternoon,

i have select box, width of select box set 50px. need specifiy width of option drop box. right now, value long, flows off screen. set fixed width 200px example. trying text overflow line , not cut off.

i have tried:

option style="width: 200px"  option width="200" 

i have tried both inline styled , put style sheet.

btw, using chrome , firefox.

all appreciated. ^^

to have fixed width select box, can write

select{   width: 200px } 

you cannot make text overflow line through standard method. might find plugins online. not recommended because of browser compatibility issue.

i found link might helpful github, demo
