Intuitive input width needed

[crowdmedia]

Seems like the better option for unifying form design but its not as flexible as it might be.

Seems its difficult to size form items such as the select unless the size is uniform across a site. I would like to specify the width of different selects placed for different use throughout the site but to do this would require a few lines of css for each select which is a bit cumbersome. Would be ideal if the script could grab the width attribute, possibly other attributes given to the original select or indeed to the selector class and apply the necessary changes to "div.selector select" and "div.selector span" for example.

Nice job though, keeping the original functionality of the dropdown of a select is ideal.

Great Job, love it!

I am also having similar issues where i would like to use different width selects on the same page. The idea on the last comment to try and use the width attribute of the current field would be a massive improvement.

I have managed to amend the script to use the width attribute and it seems to work well. I simply amended the doSelect function as follows:

function doSelect(elem){
var width = elem.width();
var divTag = $('

'),
spanTag = $('');

A little crude but it seems to have done the trick for me. I can now specify a width on each select.

Excellent, I will let you know if i come across any other issues as i implement it across my site. Exactly the method i thought would work best.
