or did you wnat something like this
<select name=&quot;sel&quot;>
<option> <=======> </option>
<option value=&quot;value <br> one&quot;> value one</option>
</select>
<br>
<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;> document.write(document.frm.sel.options[1].value);</script>

which only effects the output of the value after reference but has no effect to the select appearance

oh, I didn't set the value. I only try to break the Text.

<select name=&quot;ddbox&quot;>
<option selected>Select one</option
<option>Long text item.....<br>.......</option>
</select>

but that doesn't work?

I'm just trying to figure out how you did this because I thought it wasn't possible. At least when i test it in IE5.5 and NN7.

what are you viewing it under

Nor can I get it to work in IE6. Odd...

I guess thats why I'm not seeing it. Anyhow, at least you know it isn't valid on anything NN browser (gecko) or pre IE6
