No problem Tom, your welcome. I love these css challenges

I was trying to make the width of the drop down list expandable. Meaning it would expand to width of the largest link within it. I got it to work in almost every browser, but can you guess which one would not comply?

Ahh yes...our good buddy IE!

That is why I mentioned the change from "auto" to "220px" below. That number is the width of the drop down so feel free to adjust that for your desired width. If you have multiple drop downs that will vary in width, then you would need to make an id for each one set the width in there. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
