DropDownList skin - assign BorderColorGood Morning,
I am trying to assign the BorderColor for a DropDownList in a skin. I can't get anything to work. If anyone has some insight or code on how to assign DropDownList.BorderColor in a skin, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Erik hi Eric, you cant get it to work because its not supported in IE, and as for
firefox and opera, they set the border around the dropdownlist in collapse state, while the border is ignored on the dropdown itself. you can make a simple test yourself and verify this =P <asp:DropDownList style="border:5px solid green" ID="DropDownList1" runat="server"> <asp:ListItem>i am an apple</asp:ListItem> <asp:ListItem>i am an orange</asp:ListItem> <asp:ListItem>i am a banana</asp:ListItem> <asp:ListItem>i like fruits!</asp:ListItem> </asp:DropDownList> Regards, Alessandro Zifiglio http://www.AsyncUI.net Show quoteHide quote "Erik" <E***@discussions.microsoft.com> ha scritto nel messaggio news:AF0B35E0-323E-4C42-9D43-691B65C07383@microsoft.com... > Good Morning, > I am trying to assign the BorderColor for a DropDownList in a skin.

dropdownlist with updated borders, or will IE not allow this either?

IE does not support borders on the select element,
period =P The dropdownlist control renders an HTML select element. If the border is so important to you, then you can go for a third party component which is not a standard select element, but a combination of other elements to mimic a dropdownlist but with addition of the borders you seek, adding images on the items, highligthing on mouseover etc. This one seems to be free : http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/ComboAdjustDropDownWidth.asp You can look for something more advanced and nice for a cost like this one : http://www.telerik.com/default.aspx?pageid=2423 keep searching online.
