Hello,
does anyone know how to remove/hide the drop-down menu arrow? Would also like to remove the border/frame or if not possible, change the colour. Please find my code below.

Thanks!

The arrow cannot be hidden. The only thing you can do is change the font colour and background colour. In some browsers, you can also change the font.

If you want to customise any further, you'll have to write your own DHTML solution.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Dan,
Saved me lots of time. Will look at some other alternatives then.

FYI,

I'm playing with some code at the moment which emulates a drop-down box that displays images next to the text items. It'll be posted in the next week or so here, so keep an eye out and grab the code if you have no luck between now and then.
