using html in your drop down menu

[tish tash]

is it possible to use html in a drop down menu to make the font bold, underlined or a different colour?


Which part of the choice/ component would I place the html codes? I've had a play around but nothing has been succesful!

ill be v. grateful if anyone knows!

I've searched the term drop down menu, and I think i may have been misunderstood.....

I mean the drop down selection boxes, as can be seen on this page

any ideas?

You can use css to alter the text inside a drop down menu

for example in my own actinic.css file I have

input,textarea,select
{
font-family: Verdana, Arial, "MS Sans Serif";
font-size: 11px;
}

I just wanted to say make the price £5.99 appear in red, not the actual box...

which ever wa its done, do I have to create a template?

I understand what you mean. You want part of the displayed text in the dropdown to be in a colour like this:
Widgets £5.99

Unfortunately although I understand what you mean but sorry, I don't have a solution - I tried to do it myself just now without any luck also.

Edit: You can however do something towards that if you select Radio Buttons instead of Dropdown. You can add some User Defined HTML which will then show after the selection itself. Have a fiddle around with that - it may help.
