Hi Guys,

I am using a dropdown list in my apps.The dropdown have near about 100 entries.I want to display first 10 entries and for the remaining entries i want to display a scrollbar for that.

Is anyone have any idea that how to accomplish this?

You can assume a simple html dropdown for this task.like..

<select>
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">two</option>
<option value="3">Three</option>
  and so on
    ................
   ................
      .........
</select>

Thanks in advance!

Solution 1

Put your list inside a DIV tag and set the DIV style overflow:auto and the DIV's height to a fixed height.
