How to make a select field show list of options? - Javascript/jQuery

Question

Hi folks,

I'm trying to mimic focus on a select field.

e.g. When a user gains focus on a select field, the select field shows the options in a drop down list.

When using $('select').focus(), the options are not shown.

Any help on this one guys? =)

Answer 1

Set the size attribute of the select to 6 (or whatever small int you like) on focus and back to 0 on blur.
