changing the size of popup_menu's etc

[tantric]

scrolling lists and the like seem to have the default size set to the longest element, but i'd like to limit that, if possible. can it be done? there seems to be no attribute to control this. i really don't want to actually chop off the text, as it is a param and refers to a dB record.

Are you talking web browser or Tk? In a web browser forget it, perl has nothing to do with that. For that you would use javascript/css. If you are talking Tk, it might be possible but I don't know how myself.
