How to change the default highlight color of drop down in HTML from blue to some other color for <select><option>
tags, using some CSS properties or from Javascript?
The requirement is I have to use the <select> <option>
tags only. I tried the code below, but it didn't work for me:
<html>
<head>
<title>Dropdown Colour</title>
<style type="text/css">
option:hover {
background:#C6C4BD;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<select>
<option>Shell</option>
<option>Cabbage</option>
<option>Beans</option>
<option>Cheese</option>
<option>Clock</option>
<option>Monkey</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
