How do I change the drop down list arrow

[justinae]

I made a custom arrow graphic for the drop down list that is used in the manufacturers search. Where do I change that? I've looked all over.

thanx!

Do you mean to replace the arrows on the scrollbar inserted by visitors' browsers? If so, I don't believe that this can be done, unless there's some advanced javascript technique of which I'm unaware.

No it's the arrow on the drop down list of manufacturers. I've been able to change the background color but don't know how to make the arrow a custom one. You can see it here: http://www.buildlocal.org/zencart/index.php

I suspect that it's showing on your site as a pulldown menu because it only has two entries. But the answer is the same.

These entities are considered by those who wrote the original CSS standards to be part of the browser interface rather than part of the page the browser is displaying, and as such how they are rendered is left up to the browser writers. Although some aspects, such as background colors, can be adjusted via the stylesheet, the results are notoriously variable from browser-to-browser, and in the case of that arrow, I know of no way of changing it for any browser.

Worse. You'd have to write your own browser and persuade all your visitors to adopt it!
