Drop down box properties

[Steven Barkess]

Hi

I am trying to put a drop down list on my site, using dreamweaver as my tool to do this. Question, how do i set the font size, colour, and background colour to the box.

Below is the code for the list so far...

<select name="select" size="0">
<option value="www.1" selected>Forthcoming</option>
<option value="www.2">Catalogue</option>
<option value="www.3">Unsigned Artists</option>
<option value="www.4">Independent</option>
</select>


Thanks, Steven

Hi Steven

As far as I know in HTML, you cannot change font size, color or the background color of the drop-down box.

Hi,

Have you tried using CSS?

You can use inline style like this

<select style="font-size: 48px; font-family:garamond; color:green; background:yellow" name="select" size="0">

or if you've lots of these selects then refer to a class in a CSS file.

e.g.

<select class="myselectstyle" name="select" size="0">
