Styling checkboxes, radio buttons and dropdowns

Question

How can I style HTML checkboxes, radio buttons and dropdowns? Or can I?

I\'d like to use an image for checkboxes or radiobuttons, and the same for lists - the dropdo

Answer 1

You can style form elements, but it is difficult (impossible?) to get a consistent style across browsers and operating systems with a pure CSS approach. Some script manipulation of styles would also be required.

This is a very good article that discusses the options and issues: Styling form controls

Listamatic has a great collection of CSS list styles.
