/*
Script to solve a bug in the Component Art ComboBox
Problem 
When you are using the ComboBox in DropDown mode (No text box), if you select an item in the list that has text wider than the combo box the box will streatch to accomodate the text. The reason for this is caused by the <nobr> that the text is wrapped in. 
Workaround 
To get round the problem attach an event handler to the changed event on the combobox and add the following code.
