Hi guys

On this web site page (http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/9178/dropdownus6.jpg) I want to be able to change the "drop down" menu button colour from the light blue to the dark blue to match the scroll bar.

I know how to change the scroller bar (it's in the CSS). But how do I change the "drop down" menu button colour ? ? ?

it would entail a css attribute for the select and option tags. Only works in IE/Win though.

Hi Buzz - Thanks for the reply.

Could you expand on it a bit though ? ?

Do I need to create some additional lines in my CSS, or should there already be something there controlling the colour. I assumed there would already be something there defining the colour but I can't see it ! ! ! :dizzy: :dizzy:

You'd need to create new attributes



form select { css stuff here }
form option { css stufff here}

Hi Buzz - This seems to work to change the colours of the text or background colour of the box.

But what I want to do is change the colour of the actual drop down arrow to the right of the selection box. (Currently showing as light blue background with a darker blue arrow).
