how would i reference, so i could overwrite, all of the select boxes so i can overwrite the default height? I\'m familiar when i create elements using a class, but im unsure
You mean the menu that pops up when dropping down a native select
element?
I don't think you can influence that at all, that's entirely up to the browser.
What you might be able to influence - it should work in all current browsers - is the select
itself:
select { height: .... }
or each option (Should work in Firefox; spotty support otherwise)
select option { height: .... }
