How do I force a JS menu to display inline

[vivalasvegas]

Hi,

I am using a drop down list containing about 200 elements and have decided to place it in an external .js file. The problem I'm having: when calling the file within the body tags (<script src="example.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"></script>) it behaves like a block element and I can not change it to display inline. I tried to style it in CSS but nothing happens. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks:)

Hm no one knows? Maybe I should explain this further. It is a basic list (like the one created with <select><option></select> in HTML and the drop down elements are not links. I would like to add some text right next to this drop down list, but I can't (the text added jumps below the list).
