Negative there. IE has a problem with large and/or numerous drop down lists. If you want an example, get moderation on slashdot sometime and go look at a page with a lot of posts. Or write one. Make a page with about 150 drop down lists of moderate size and look at it in IE.
Don't dismiss so easily, really. It's a very valid question, while possibly not perl related, it's a software design question and that's what perl's for.. and I'm sure other people will run into this same problem eventually. Browser bugs and inconsistancies are a huge problem in web development.
