How do I set the max height for a select dropdown?
Specifying height:50px is limiting the select to 50px. Use min-height instead. Also wrap the select element in a div with fixed height so that it'll overlap on content below and not push it down.
How can I limit the visible options in an HTML select dropdown?
It is not possible to limit the number of visible elements in the select dropdown (if you use it as dropdown box and not as list). But you could use javascript/jQuery to replace this selectbox with something else, which just looks like a dropdown box. Then you can handle the height of dropdown as you want.
How do I fix the width of a dropdown in HTML?
Tip: If you want the width of the dropdown content to be as wide as the dropdown button, set the width to 100% (and overflow:auto to enable scroll on small screens). Instead of using a border, we have used the CSS box-shadow property to make the dropdown menu look like a "card".
How do I create a scrollable dropdown list in HTML?
Use any element to open the dropdown menu, e.g. a <button>, <a> or <p> element. Use a container element (like <div>) to create the dropdown menu and add the dropdown links inside it. Wrap a <div> element around the button and the <div> to position the dropdown menu correctly with CSS.
