Hi, i know this is probably a dumb question and i really should know how to do it, but i am banging my head against the wall now and coming up with nothing but a headache.
I am trying to style the dropdown menus, so i can have a colored background rahter than the white and colored text instead of the black. I have seen it done in dark waters and i have gone over the coding there and just cannot find the class i need to either tweak or add into my css.
thanks
jacci

It's css.
You have to know that if you edit the coloring of the drop down box, if you don't change all the form elements, it will look funny. Like the advanced search for example, it has a drop down boxes and text boxes with lists, buttons and check mark boxes. If you change just one, the others will still be the default grey.
This is what I use for my anger skin

Just FYI, this doesn't work with all browsers if I remember right.
I'm using Windows XP, it seems to work with IE, Firefox, Netscape (both rendering), and Opera. The scrollbars look a little funny with Netscape IE rendering though. The scrollbar color changes don't even show up on many browsers so I often don't bother with them.
Like Tammy said, they might not show up on other browsers, I don't know which ones though.

I am using XP tabliet editioin and i coudlnt get the scrollbars to show any kind of styling in either opera or ie7. But the field colour changed and the text and they were the two things i wanted the most so that is all good. 😀
