Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards
track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not
work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between
implementations and the behavior may change in the future.
-ms-clear can only be applied on an input with type text. It is non-standard and only works in IE 10, 11 and Edge.
This pseudo-element is used to modify a little button which is visible by default to clear input boxes. You can see it working here, if you have an edge browser. Just click into the textbox and write something and a little cross will appear on the right side of the input box.

In Safari, Chrome, and Opera a <select> box with a size of 20px looks like this:
But in Firefox, however, it looks like this:
Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it? Thanks!
EDIT: Here's a Fiddle so you can test it yourself.
EDIT2: This appears the be a Mac OS X problem, as someone with Windows did not see it.
I would suggest using em it will give you more standard across all browsers. 20px = 1.25em

You can turn off the default styling for select boxes in webkit and Firefox with these lines:
select {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
}
However, it's a finicky and non-standard solution. The font-size will change, but you'll lose all the other stuff, too, including the arrows.
Select boxes are notoriously difficult to style. There are some great third-party libraries like Selectize, Chosen, or select2, which actually replace the select element with a style-able DOM tree and use events to manipulate the select behind the scenes. You may find these easier to use.
I have a drop down box on a web page, using the HTML5 <select> tag. There are times where I want to make it "read only", that is display it as text only. For example:
Sometimes I want it to be "read/write":
And other times I want it to be "read only":
I would prefer not to use the "disable" attribute. I think it looks tacky, and implies that there is somehow a choice to the user when none is available.
Is it possible to transform the look of the current option for a select into normal text using CSS?
Yes, use the CSS:
select {
appearance: none;
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
border: none;
/* needed for Firefox: */
overflow:hidden;
width: 120%;
}
example:
http://jsfiddle.net/eG3dS/
Because of the "needed for Firefox" section, you will need to make a div or span that constrains the select box size. It's too bad FF doesn't respect moz-appearance here.
Note that even though this makes it look like normal text, it is still a working select box! You will need to disable it some way, either by using the "disabled" attribute and changing the font color or otherwise.
In WebKit you can do it using -webkit-appearance: none;
select {
-webkit-appearance: none;
border: none;
}
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/ThiefMaster/56Eu2/2/
To prevent the user from actually using the selectbox you need to disable it (disabled attribute).
Be warned that this is highly non-standard and does not work with -moz-appearance for example! Thebehavior of the -*-appearance property differs in various browsers and Mozilla even recommends not using it on websites at all:
Do not use this property on Web sites: not only is it non-standard, but its behavior change from one browser to another. Even the keyword none has not the same behavior on each form element on different browsers, and some doesn't support it at all.
I think the easiest thing would be to have a span next to your select, and use an event listener on the select to copy its text into the span, and toggle whether the select or the span is visible. It's a bit of Javascript but it will give you a lot of control.
You could create a custom drop down and have a disabled state, styled with CSS.

Context
Firefox 14 (and 13); specific CSS styles being ignored under certain conditions
The Problem
Using the following CSS:
*
{
outline:none;
-moz-outline:none;
-moz-user-focus:ignore;
}
JSFiddle
Firefox 14 (and 13) ignore these styles when using Tab to switch between select elements. Clicking these elements after using Tab still displays the outline.
Notes
Specifically styling select instead of * has no effect.
This only occurs with select elements.
The Question
Is this a bug or intended behavior?
Are there any other CSS styles that need to be used to prevent the outline from appearing indefinitely?
This is a known bug which has sparked several Stackoverflow discussions. From what I have read, Mozilla have deemed that CSS is the wrong place to handle this element behaviour, and have opted instead to handle it by other means. At this time the only solution is to either use tabindex="-1" or to set the element to display as something else, and restyle the look and feel of a droplist — but be warned, this opens a can of worms in itself.
If you do opt to do this, I have had success in the past with the following kludge:
select {
appearance: normal;
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: radio-container; /* renders text within select, without arrow chrome */
}
Appearance tells the browser to display the element as something else, but this is inconsistent from vendor to vendor. appearance: normal; is the spec, whilst webkit replaces normal with none. -moz-appearance: radio-container; has been the only way I have found to display the text within the chosen select option, whilst removing the arrow chrome for a fully customised droplist. However, try experimenting with the available options until you find something that works and doesn't add the focus ring you wish to customise. Internet Explorer will require further kludge to bend the select to your needs. Entirely possible, but out of scope for this question and answer.
So far the only way I've found to overcome it is to set the tabindex='-1' (see fiddle) which, of course, takes the element completely out of the tab selection chain. That would not be good for user interface, and my guess is not exactly what you desire (I assume you want to keep tab accessibility but just do your own styling for highlighting).
Another solution is to set outline: none and set a box-shadow. For example:
.my_elements:focus
{
outline: none;
box-shadow: 0 0 3px 0px red;
}
Use
*:-moz-focusring {
outline: 2px solid blue;
}
will give you similiar to chrome
Also, if using mac, you also need to enable this:
How to allow keyboard focus of links in Firefox?
I'm trying to remove the blue "halo" outline that form elements have in Firefox on OS X. Using CSS, I can remove the halo in Safari on OS X, via:
input {
outline: none;
}
But this seems to have no effect in Firefox, nor does the -moz-outline property.
Another option, that takes care of all of the 'halo' is this:
*:focus {outline: none;}
I guess you could add an !important if you wished, but I haven't run into the need yet.
:focus {outline:none;}
::-moz-focus-inner {border:0;}
I'm going out on a limb since I don't have OSX to test it... but does removing the border work?
input {
border: 0;
}
I believe the style of all the form elements are stored in the forms.css file. In OS X, I think it is located here:
/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/res/forms.css
You may want to browse through that file and see if there is any obvious CSS that is affecting the appearance you are seeing. For example, on Windows the input element has -moz-appearance: textfield;, which I couldn't find any documentation on, so perhaps there is some "native" -moz-* style on those fields that is controlling the glow, something you could possibly override.
The other thing to try might be to override everything in that file by changing the input definitions to input2 or something (after making a copy of course). Then you can see if you can get the glow to stop at all by manipulating the default CSS.
Once you've determined you can make it stop (if you can), you can add styles back in a bit at a time until you find the one that causes the effect you don't want. You can probably speed up that process by eliminating styles from your testing that obviously aren't related (e.g. - line-height: normal !important; is almost certainly not responsible for a blue glow around the fields).
Maybe you have an active user style sheet in your machine creating this behaviour. Some add-ons do this (to make the focus more obvious).
Look into the firefox's chome forder (in your user files)
Alternatively try with
input {outline: none!important;}
Also
The Stylish plugin has a style for this, maybe you have it installed?
There are greasemonkey script that do this. If you have it installed, disable it
They both take precedence over the !important attribute.
So: you have several places to look into
* User stylesheets
* Stylysh
* greasemonkey
* anothes add-on
One of those must be forcing the outline
I went through the various suggestions made here, but none seemed to be able to fully address the problem. By defining a custom border style, i.e.
border: 1px solid #000;
I'm able to get rid of the focus halo, but this obviously alters the look of the input element. border-style: inset; seems to most closely resemble the "native" look, but it's still not quite right, so as far as I can tell right now, you can either suppress the halo, or have a natural looking input.
I believe this is what you are looking for:
input:focus { outline: none; }
Don't really want to blame mozilla on this one, i'm sure it could be me doing something silly but the page at:

Okay, firstly, your CSS is a mess. Secondly, there's this declaration:
#faq-bb li { list-style-image:url(/display_images/stonewall/faq_bullet.gif; list-style-type: none; margin: -2px; padding: 0px; visible:false;}
Note the very important missing second ) around the URL. Looks like FF 3.6 is a bit more picky.
You have visible:false; -- "false" is not valid value. You either mean visibility: collapse;, but that likely has poor support in older browsers, or the old standby display: none;.
Please validate your CSS.
There are a lot of validation errors on the page, which could be causing problems. These ones sound most important:
document type does not allow element "script" here; assuming missing "head" start-tag
document type does not allow element "head" here
document type does not allow element "body" here
ID "search" already defined
...plus a bunch of errors from the Javascript (check your CDATA definitions)
Also as Anonymous pointed out, there are CSS errors. There is no property visible - I'm guessing you want visibility: hidden. But I'm positive you don't need so many things hidden.
For me also, your website is working on Firefox 3.5 and on Chrome, but Firefox 3.6 has problems. Your presentation is working, but the
<span class="hidden"> .... </span>
tags are showing up instead of remaining hidden.
Why are those tags there?
If you want to keep them, you probably want to clean up your definition of the "hidden" class, like Anonymous says, you cannot specify "visible: false". Remove it, and then validate the rest of your CSS and HTML. There are really a lot of errors.
