Hi,

I'm trying to do a simple drop down, styled by CSS which looks uniform in IE and Firefox.

Here is a sample page
For some reason the Firefox browser seems to want to make the drop down have a 3D border. How can I remove this look, so its flat, like the IE display?

here is what i have for the class in the style sheet

.shop_by_brand_root {
BACKGROUND-COLOR: #7FA3C2; FONT-FAMILY: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica ; font-weight: bold; COLOR: #F2F2F2; FONT-SIZE: 11px; margin-left:16;
}

Thanks for your help.

Im not sure you can. Select boxes (and many other form elements) cannot be styled as freely as non-form elements in some browsers.

Select boxes, in particular, are problematic because they are "windowed" controls.
