combobox

i am using this jquery ui combobox autocomplete control out of the box off the jquery ui website:

my issue is that i have multiple comboboxes on a page and i want them to have different widths for each one.

i can change the width for ALL of them by adding this css:

 .ui-autocomplete-input
 {
     width:300px;
 }

but i can't figure out a way to change the width on just one of them
