The dhtmlxcombo_whp.js extension is missed in your sample. So, enableOptionAutoWidth was not defined.

Please, try to include this file - and the issue should occur.

Thanks again,

but the auto width option is enable only for the list

 i want dhtmlxcombo control to  resize its width to the max length of a option in the list so that if a option with lengthy text is selected

should be shown on the control without missing any character

Unfortunately, combo API doesn't allow to set input width automatically.

While it not possible by API you can attach custom event handler to onChange event and call the combo.setSize(some) from it to change the width of combo after option selected.
