height on select is weird in IE 6

i am using a jquery plugin called fcbkcomplete which shows up fine in chrome and firefox (see here):

enter image description here

but when i pull it up in IE6, the height shows up weird in internet explorer 6. (height of main entry box is very tiny).

enter image description here

i just confirmed its not an overlay issue and definitely a height of input issue as when you add a top margin to the dropdown the height is still small on IE6. See image below:

enter image description here

here is my code:

       $("#select3").fcbkcomplete({
            json_url: "/Scripts/fcbkcomplete/data.txt",
            addontab: true,
            newel: true,
            firstselected: true,
            height: 2
        });

Does anyone know is there is a workaround using css, etc to get IE to work here?

So, Microsoft finally decided it's time to scrap this archaic beast of a browser.

Now when both Google and Microsoft are dropping/have dropped support for IE6 its time for your company to do the same. I therefor see this as a valid answer, and so should you and your employer. Do yourself and everyone else a favor and educate others.

The only valid reason to support IE6 would be when developing for legacy applications (as in your case I guess), but then it's high time to replace this application with something new and modern. In the end, it's all about the money, right?
