I want to remove the default arrow from the select box and want to use custom icon. From the previous answers on SO, I have found out that it is not possible (to make it work with major browsers). Only possibility is to wrap the select inside a div, and set its width more than the div width and setting overflow: hidden.
I am trying following, but it does not work. What I'm doing wrong?
.selectParent {
width: 80px;
overflow: hidden;
}
.selectParent select {
width: 100px;
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
padding: 2px 30px 2px 2px;
border: none;
background: transparent url("http://cdn1.iconfinder.com/data/icons/cc_mono_icon_set/blacks/16x16/br_down.png") no-repeat right center;
}
Option 1
