I have a simple dropdown menu: 

<form class="feedmenu" align="center">
<select onchange="showRSS1(this.value)">
<option value="">Select an RSS-feed:</option>
<option value="ATO-HK">Asia Times</option>
<option value="HKH-HK">Hong Kong Herald</option>
<option value="Gov-HK">News.gov.hk</option>
<option value="RTHK-HK">Radio Television Hong Kong</option>
<option value="SCMP-HK">South China Morning Post</option>
<option value="STD-HK">The Standard</option>
</select>
</form>

How can I specify how large the dropdown box should be once you open it – the size="x" attribute does not do this, neither does the height="x" attribute.

    Edit: Sorry, I hadn’t read your comment before writing this. If you only want more options to be shown, then you can create empty ones for your dropdown. Example
