I have a form with a drop down list of venues and a submit button. They are supposed to be on the same line, but since the list of venues is dynamic, it could become too long and push the button down.
I was thinking of setting a max-width property to the select, but I'm not clear whether this will work in all browsers. Do you have any suggestions on a workaround?
form action="http://localhost/ci-llmg/index.php/welcome/searchVenueForm" method="post" class="searchform"><select name="venue">
<option value="0" selected="selected">Select venue...</option>
<option value="1">venue 0</option>
<option value="2">club 1</option>
<option value="3">disco 2</option>
<option value="4">future test venue</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="" value="Show venue!" class="submitButton" />
</form>
css:
.searchform select {
max-width: 320px;
}
.searchform input.submitButton {
float: right;
}
