try the  important argument to make sure the CSS is not conflicting with any other styles you have specified  Also using a reset css is good before you add your own styles   select wgmstr       max-width  50px      min-width  50px      width  50px  important      or    lt select name  wgtmsr  id  wgtmsr  style  width  50px  important  min-width  50px  max-width  50px   gt

The dropdown width itself cannot be set  It s width depend on the option-values  See also here   jsfiddle net LgS3C     How the select box looks like is also depending on your browser   You can build your own control or use Select2  https   select2 org
