Programmatically open a drop-down menu

html, javascript

Solution

After trying a few things, I could not get it to work. So maybe the answer might be "it is impossible". Sorry!

The only way you could probably do it is to use one of the jQuery plugins that turn a normal select element into normal elements that are styled. Then it should be trivial to set `display: block` on one of the elements the plugin produces.
