ASP.NET

<asp:DropDownList ID="dropDownHr" runat="server" >
    <asp:ListItem>1</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>2</asp:ListItem>
                  .
                  .
       </asp:DropDownList>

<asp:DropDownList ID="dropDownMin" runat="server" >
    <asp:ListItem>1</asp:ListItem>
    <asp:ListItem>2</asp:ListItem>
                  .
                  .
       </asp:DropDownList>

Thanks for help in advance.

Try to use below code.

XML

<asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="ddlColors" onmousedown="this.size=5;"  >
        <asp:ListItem>Red</asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem>Green</asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem>Blue</asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem>Yellow</asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem>White</asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem>Black</asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem>Purple</asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem>no color</asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>

CSS

.dropmenudiv
{
  height: 300px;
  max-height: 300px;
  overflow-y: scroll;
}
