Background-color select (dropdown) on Android (opera, chrome)

Question

I want to set the background-color of specific options in a select menu.

On the desktop browsers it works fine, but when i look on my smartphone (android with chrome) no background-color is shown up.

I do it like:

<select>
   <options></options>
   <options class="color"></options>
   <options></options>
 </select

and style it:

.color{background-color : #999;}

Does anyone know a solution?

Hi, why is your css declaration inserting **#999** inside quotation mark ? — Milche Patern, Feb 25 '13 at 15:20
Sorry, i write it the wrong way...But that was not the problem. Iphone and Android show their own selectmenu on a website. But can i change the background color of this menu? — amernov, Apr 02 '13 at 10:35

What i see is INVALID css formating.

Try removing quotation mark for color declaration

.color{background-color : #999;}

For a last try,

.color{background-color : #999!important;}

I am not sure if you want to stylize a <select> or a <list view>
