Menu
i am working on a mobile app using HTML/CSS/JavaScript. I have two select option (drop down menu), one for number of dates and the other one for number of years. I want to be able to see these select options in one line, but no matter what I do, I get a drop down menu (number of dates) on one line and on the next line I get the drop down menu for number of years. Below you can see my codes
<div data-role="controlgroup" data-type = "horizontal" >
<label for="select-choice-1" >Choose Expiry Date</label>
<select name="select-choice-1" id="select-choice-1" data-inline = "true" style = "float: left">
<option value="1">01</option>
<option value="2">02</option>
<option value="3">03</option>

Try floating both select tags left and adding a clear:both to the styling on the label. If you want the label above the two selects, just add a <br /> right below the label.
It would look something like
<label>Label Value</label>
<select>
<option>Etc...</option>
</select>
<select>
<option>Second select option...</option
</select>
and the CSS would be
label {
clear:both;
}
select {
float:left;
}
Also, as a heads-up, you end your second select tag before the first option tag, so they aren't included.
<select name="select-year" id="select-yaer" data-inline = "true" style = "float: right"/>. You need to get rid of the / right before the ending of the tag.

It's the width on the ui-select class that's causing your issue, Setting the width to auto should correct the issue. jQM adds a ton of extra markup for the look and feel on the page to be consistent across multiple devices. If you view the page source in a browser such as Chrome or FireFox you can see the extra elements. In your case you needed to modify the ui-select class as it has a width of 60% as the default.
Live Example:
JS:
$('#select-choice-1').parent().parent().css('width','auto');
HTML:
<div data-role="page" id="home">
<div data-role="content">
<div data-role="controlgroup" data-type="horizontal" data-inline="true">
<label for="select-choice-1" data-inline="true">Choose Expiry Date</label>
<select name="select-choice-1" id="select-choice-1" data-inline="true">
<option value="1">01</option>
<option value="2">02</option>
<option value="3">03</option>
<option value="4">04</option>
<option value="5">05</option>
<option value="6">06</option>
<option value="7">07</option>
<option value="8">08</option>
<option value="9">09</option>
<option value="10">10</option>
<option value="11">11</option>
<option value="12">12</option>
<option value="13">13</option>
