I have a Surface Pro running an HTMl/CSS/JavaScript Store App on Win8.1. There's a standard HTML select menu like this:

<select>
    <option>Option</option>
</select>

When you tap it the select menu expands to the full width of the viewport. This is reproducible within the Visual Studio/Blend Simulator at the 1920x1080 140% scaling resolution.

Any ideas as to why this is happening and how it could be resolved?

Here's the simulator at 10.6" 1920x1080 @140%

Here's the simulator at 23" 1920x1080 @100% (app is blanked out)

Thank you

it's up to the browser on how to render form fields such as `input`, and `select`. – zzzzBov Nov 06 '13 at 17:52
It's the same browser rendering them differently (IE11) based on device scaling. – ccheney Nov 06 '13 at 18:03
