How to change width of html.DropDownListFor()

Question

I have small design question about

html.DropDownListFor() 

How can I change width of html.DropDownListFor() ?? For example by css.

Answer 1

Have you tried Html.DropDownListFor( new {width:"100"})

or Html.DropDownListFor( new {@class:"longDropdownList"})

EDIT

<style>
    .MakeWide { width: 200px; }
</style>

<%= Html.DropDownListFor(x => x.Name, new SelectList(new List<string>()), new { @class = "MakeWide" })%>

Answer 2

In C# you need add @, like this:

new { @style = "width: 350px;" }

Answer 3

@Html.DropDownListFor(x => x.Name, new SelectList(new List<string>()), new {style="width:270px;"} );

Will do the thing. Although better to use css class
