Hi I have a dropdown list that opens upward. Is there a way with CSS to force it to open downward?

Do you mean a <select> element? If so, no, not with the traditional element. It opens up or down based on the current scroll position and space required to display the options.

If you mean another type of drop down, e.g. <ul> elements, then yes. Please post your code.

It's an asp.net dropdownlist that's populated from code-behind. There really is no CSS that forces it to open down instead of up?

<asp:DropDownList ID="ddType" runat="server" AppendDataBoundItems="true" onFocus="ddBlank('tye')">
</asp:DropDownList>
