I can't seem to be able to define a height for a <select> even setting it to display:block
select{
height: 100px; /* ignored */
display: inline-block;
}
Any idea why?
-edit-
I am using google chrome

10it's working for me. What browser are you using – SyntaxLAMP Feb 13 '14 at 10:11

Better to use `padding: 40px 0;`. The text does not center in FireFox. The height is working in Chrome and FireFox. – AfromanJ Feb 13 '14 at 10:11

If you're working on a Mac, make sure to put
-webkit-appearance: none;
above the styling attributes, eg:
select {
-webkit-appearance: none;
height: 100px;
display: inline-block;
}
Then you can style to your hearts content.
