A colleague of mine has the exact same version of firefox and doesn't have the problem. Reproducible: Always

If you select the dropdown, right-click, and select "View Selection Source", what do you see for the <select> element? I see <select name="Epson_ProductRangeList" size="1" onchange="Epson_FillProductList(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value,null);Epson_isValid('Epson_PRMissing');Epson_ClearBox();" language="javascript" id="Epson_ProductRangeList" class="DropDownMenu"> (Btw, the <select> on this page seems to be created by JavaScript. If I turn off JavaScript, it doesn't appear at all.) If you load data:text/html,<select size="1"><option>A</option><option>B</option></select> do you get a dropdown or a listbox?

And I can see the same exact same source as you do. The hint on the javascript kind of make sense due to having installed the Javascript debuger some time before I've lost the combos.

If you're getting the wrong kind of control for that simple XHTML testcase, the problem probably isn't related to the JavaScript Debugger.

makes sense.

Does running Firefox in safe mode (to temporarily disable all your extensions) help? See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode.

Odd.
Component: General → Layout: Form Controls
Product: Firefox → Core
QA Contact: general → layout.form-controls
Summary: the select tag doesn't render properly on my browser. It cames out as a list of options rather than a combo box → <select size="1"> appears as a listbox instead of a combobox for me
Version: unspecified → 1.8 Branch

You can create a new profile for testing: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager.

It does work with the new profile. Is there anyway I can reset the settings of the old but still keep my extensions and tools?

I don't know an easy way. You can copy your bookmarks and maybe your extensions from your old profile to your new profile manually. It would be great if you could identify which file in your old profile caused this problem. If it's a file you can upload without giving away sensitive information (e.g. passwords), we could use it to figure out what the bug in Firefox is and fix it.

Francisco, can you still reproduce this bug? do you have the "prefs.js" file from the profile where the problem occurred?
