Hi,

I'm new here ( Hi all ), and my problem is:

Is possible to change layout of drop-down list made with <select> & <option>
tags. I don't like this ugly gray arrow, slider etc. in normal dropdown
element.
I tried the same way like for eq. <input> but in case of <select> it dosen't
work.

Any ideas?

Thx in advance.

M.A.P.

Hey Man,

Dropdowns are actually part of your OS, and not the browser, so there
is unfortunately nothing you can do to change their appearances...

I'm guessing (more like hoping) that there will be a fix later on and
allowing the programming or markuping available for this feature.

You can still change the color for your scroll bar or the scrollbar of
the textarea by using the CSS of:

body {
scrollbar-3dlight-color:skyblue;
scrollbar-arrow-color:#001155;
scrollbar-base-color:#033000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:#000d00;
scrollbar-face-color:skyblue;
scrollbar-highlight-color:#0d0000;
scrollbar-track-color:#f00000;
scrollbar-shadow-color:#22d000
}

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
