Fixing the size of Jquery Ui multiselect

jquery, jquery-plugins, multi-select

Solution

The Jquery Ui multiselect plugin appears to use the height and width values of the select item you are calling it on.

For example if you have a select like:

<select id="locations" class="multiselect" multiple="multiple" name="locations[]" style="width:300px; height:300px;">

Then call:

$(".multiselect").multiselect();

Your new multiselect will have 300x300 dimensions.

Problem

I am using this Jquery Ui multiselect plugin http://quasipartikel.at/multiselect_next/. I am trying to put this multiselect in an `html` table cell , but the size of `multiselect` becomes too small . Any help regarding , how to size the the whole `multiselect` so that it could be shown in a table , would be highly appreciated .
