Making Long Text Not Change Width of a Pull-Down Menu

[Livenomadic]

On one of the sidebars of my site I have a pulldown menu of categories.

However some of my categories are pretty long and the pull down menu is pushing far into the other DIVs.

Is there a way to make the pull down menu not expand no matter how long the text is?

Are you creating the pulldown menu dynamically? If so, you need to insert a function to count the characters of each line, and truncate if necessary.

If you're hardcoding it, perhaps appropriate acronyms?
