  • No, you can't properly style the little arrow on a <select> tag. You must instead use a javascript dropdown. Commented Jan 26, 2011 at 21:44

  • Doesn't look like a duplicate. This is asking on that button, the linked question is asking about the whole dropdown. Commented Jun 30, 2013 at 0:45

I'm not aware of any good cross-browser methods to style a select box with just css, but I have had success in the past with this using jquery ui
