July 7, 201214 yr Hello WDF. I want all my dropdown's to fully the same trend and would love to have a custom one, any ideas on where to get it from? I looked a DropKick But strangely struggled to implement it, unless I am having a brain-dead day! Any other ones, or ways to do it without using jQuery would be great, I want it as lightweight as possible.
July 7, 201214 yr Author http://csswizardry.com/2011/02/creating-a-pure-css-dropdown-menu/ Sorry - a bit fo confusion here. I don't want a drop down menu, I want a custom select box, (My apologies as I probably didn't make it clear). Something like this, without a jQuery Plug in - http://jamielottering.github.com/DropKick/
July 8, 201214 yr Whoops, sorry! Didn't read it properly. Javascript is the best way to re-style select lists. You can't really do much with just CSS, except give them a different border and background. I've used this plugin in the past: http://www.dfc-e.com/metiers/multimedia/opensource/jqtransform/ If you're having trouble getting any JS script to work, check the console. Any error messages and problems will show up in there.
July 8, 201214 yr CSS can do some great styling to form elements. A site i came across for example... http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2609-customizing-web-forms-with-css3-and-webkit/
July 8, 201214 yr Try drop kick again, I've been using it on a few site and I love it. Really easy to use.
