Drop Down Box Text of Different Size

I have two different drop down boxes on a page I made. In one the text inside of it looks normal size, whereas the other one for some reason is like 2 sizes larger than the other. The HTML is identical for everything from the opening <select> to the closing </select> Is there a reason why they are a different size and if so how can i make them the same?

I assume you're using Netscape.

In Netscape form fields (INPUT or SELECT) will change size depending on whether it has surrounding FONT tags.

For example, if your SELECT tag is in a section where the font size is 1, it will be smaller than the one in a section with font size 2 (or undefined font size).

To solve the problem, either make sure they both have the same font size defined, or (even better) use CSS to set the font size to be used.
