JavaScript Question: SelectBox on Netscape

Factual Questions
1

I’m writing a page that has a Selection box within a form. Basically, I want it to act like a ListBox would in Visual Basic (each line within the box can be highlighted, and there is no dropdown).
The line of code I have set up right now is:

<SELECT name=“x” SIZE = 10 STYLE=“WIDTH: 60” width=60></SELECT>

(lines of data are added to the Selection Box by using a Function to create a New Option within the Selection Box)

This works fine for me in Internet Explorer. However, when the page is viewed in Netscape, the Selection Boxes have a disabled scroll bar on the right. I need to have the box remain a specific height. Does anyone know of a way to get rid of the scroll bar when viewing it in Netscape, without it having a drop-down list (that is to say, show all 10 lines, even if they are all blank, without a scroll bar)?

It will show blank items, but it won’t show non-existant items.
That is, you need to pad it out with blank (or single space) entries.

The downside is that these blank entries will be selectable.

I’d also suggest that you keep track of how many blanks you have, and replace them, rather than merely adding new Options, otherwise you’ll probably get some choices, some blanks, then some choices.

I’ve tried putting in blank spaces (or even strings of letters), but the scroll bar still shows up in NetScape. I was hoping to find some way of setting the ScrollBar to Off (I think in IE you can just do SCROLL=0 within the tag, or something like that).
If you have any more suggestions, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
