I have a web app that only uses Firefox, over the past few days every select list in my app where its height is specified by the size attribute, has turned into a un-usable single line "list", and the only way to give it its height back is specifying the height in it's style.

Did the size attribute get deprecated and i don't know about it?

Its king of a pain in the butt to have to change all my code for these so that my app actually works again.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems

I have this problem too, and the fix is to set the height css property in addition to the size attribute.

Someone suggested when the size attribute is set, it triggers the height property to be settable
