Combo box is not working in Firefox

Hi all,

I am having a form, which contains a combo box.
I can be able to set the control text, but I am unable
to change the content of the combo.

While cliking on the down arrow, it is not giving any
pop up. This is the case in Firefox, but it is working in
IE browser.

are you able to bring up the controls example that came with the toolkit and does it display properly? if so, take a look at the source to see how you are supposed to use the control and compare it to the way your are using it. I bet that you find a descrepency.

Hi Jim,

First of all I would like to thank you for your reply.

I saw the controls example file too.
In fact I came to know about this control from that examples only.
Combo in that example also not working in my firefox, but it is working in IE.

The version of my firefox is this
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050920 Firefox/1.0.7

I am a bit confused here. The info about your browser looks like you are using Linux yet you say that IE is working. What computer/OS are you using?

The combo control is currently not complete. If it doesn't work on an older version oif FireFox, I suspect that it might get resolved before it goes final but I don't know this for sure. Alex has said there is much still to do with the combo box so I wouldn't worry too much about it right now.

Hi Jim,

Great..
You are absolutely correct.
I am having Windows as well as Linux Systems.

I am using both OS to check the compatibility of my code
with different browsers like Firefox, IE and so on.
Right now I am focusing on these two browsers only.

I am using Firefox 1.0.7 in Linux and IE in Windows XP.

Still I am having problem with this.

anyway thanks for your effort.

Any updates on this? I still can't use the combo box on any version of firefox. Tried in 1.5 and 1.0.7 The dropdown opens, but then I can't select a value or close it again.

My bad. I was accidently linking to an old version of the runtime. Works fine in 2.0.0 ... although it still has an issue where the dropdown size isn't the same width as the combo it is always the same size, 120px. It does this both in IE and in FF.

Any idea how to make the width of the dropdown popup thing change?

Nevermind, answered my own question:
