Sharan, I think the right way to code long lines is by inserting the return
where you want it.
<option value="administration">Administration, Management,
 Marketing,
Realty Etc.</option>
If a simple style like
option{white-space:pre}
works well enough for you (firefox likes it) you are done, otherwise you'll
have to re-code the <select> to an equivalent tag using a plugin. (which
Glen mentioned)

Yes Glen,
here is the page which i m talking about :

At the bottom under the occupations title you can see three select
boxes. now i can't increase their width but some entries may be longer
than the width of the select box. So i want that the longer entries
automatically wrap, so that the visitor can see the complete option.
