It is recommended to UseCodeTags. It gives better readability.

Thanks,

Now coming to your problem. I could not understand your problem. Do you want to control the width of the select list or control the width of the items in the select list.

Anyways if its the first one that you are looking out for, then here is the link to control the width of select list.

If its not the one, kindly elaborate.
