How do I set the width of dijit.form.Select?

Question

I have a programmatically generated dijit.form.Select. Unlike most other widgets, the Selects do not offer a resize method like

dijit.resize({w: width, h: height});

I have not found a standardized way of setting the width of a select. This is quite bad because the autosizing makes Dialogs "explode" on long select values.

Is there a standard way to resize a select I have missed? Or do I have mess with the markup of the select the hard way?

Thanks!

This can be achieved with CSS by setting the width of the inner label like this:

.tundra .dijitSelect .dijitButtonText {
    text-align: left;
}

.tundra .dijitSelectLabel {
    width: 120px;
    overflow: hidden;
}
