Firefox (Mozilla) drop down bar issue

    I am beginning the long put off task of making my main computer repairs website display properly in Firefox. I am done, but the drop down menu will not sit right. It blows out the side. Any suggestions.

    Here is a link to an example Fraser Valley Virus Removal

    maybe you need to put your select menu inside a form tag?

    You have to adapt or get left behind....

    I am starting to notice a lot more Mozilla hits, so I need to make the necessary changes.

    Great read.... I think that as Firefox gets more popular, attacks will escalate as far as security issues go. I use almost all browsers for many different things, but I must say, I am coming around as far as Firefox goes. Some of the plugins are phenomenal. I am still a strong advocate of MYIE2 (not Maxthon), but FF is closing in. I just wish I could get my drop down to display properly in both.

    change this part of your code
    <select name="SiteNavigation" onchange="location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">
    Code (markup):
    to
    <select name="SiteNavigation" onchange="location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value" style="width:155px">
    Code (markup):
    that should work and look good on both browsers.

    I am married and heterosexual, but dude, I could just kiss you right now. You have no idea how many PHP gurus I have talked to who have no idea how to fix that. They all say, why build to suit Mozilla...

    Anyways, thanks buddy.
