I am trying to obtain a pure CSS select input with an arrow. All is well except Firefox is causing some weird issue and pushing the arrow past the width of the box.
You can see it here: http://cssdeck.com/labs/xvvfgv3k (Please view in a FF browser)
Is this some sort of bug? When viewing the css in Firebug to try and fix the problem, it fixes itself and displays how it should. Really weird. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Try making your select element relative and adjusting the right property on your :before and :after pseudo elements.
Try this
.wrap {
width: 200px;
margin: 10% auto;
font-size: 14px;
}
select {
width: 100%;
padding:10px;
margin: 0;
border: 1px solid #bec1c3;
border-radius:0;
background: #fff;
color:#888;
line-height: 1;
outline:none;
-webkit-appearance:none;
-moz-appearance:none;
appearance:none;
cursor:pointer;
position: relative;
}
span.select {
position:relative;
padding: 9px 0;
}
span.select:after {
content:'';
width: 0px;
height: 0px;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 6px 4px 0 4px;
border-color: #bec1c3 transparent transparent transparent;
position: absolute;
right: 16px;
top: 14px;
pointer-events: none;
z-index: 100;
}
span.select:before {
content: '';
display: block;
right: 6px;
top: 0;
width: 34px;
height: 34px;
background: #F7F7F7;
position: absolute;
pointer-events: none;
z-index: 99;
}
Saucelabs shows the following browsers also show the bug you refer to :
1. Firefox 25 on windows7
2. Firefox 20 on windows7
3. Firefox 10 on windows7
4. Firefox 25 on Linux

I'm using Contact Form 7 on a website of a client, and I styled the dropdown menu to this:
.wpcf7-form select {
-webkit-appearance: textfield;
color: #72858a;
font-size: 0.7777777778rem;
background-color: #e9edf0;
border-color: #e9edf0;
padding-top: 5px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
}
Unfortunately the arrows are missing now. Is there anyway to add an down arrow at the right side of the dropdown menu in the same color as the text? I tried different css classes found on this website, but nothing seems to work.
Image of how it displays now:
And how it should be:
The arrow could also be another arrow.
Any help would be appreciated much!

Here's an option for you... now... I used the span.wpcf7-form-control-wrap that was specifically around the select I was styling. You could also (instead) wrap the selects in a custom div.
This produced this result for me
I also made the triangle using clip-path, so you can change the colors or anything else.
/* Using the menu-813 which for me was the span around the select.*/
span.wpcf7-form-control-wrap.menu-813 {
position: relative;
height: 60px;
background: #e9edf0;
display: inline-block;
}
span.wpcf7-form-control-wrap.menu-813:after {
content: '';
position:absolute;
width: 15px;
height: 15px;
background: #000;
right:8px;
top: 20px;
z-index: 0;
clip-path: polygon(100% 0, 0 0, 50% 100%);
}
.wpcf7-form select {
-webkit-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
color: #72858a;
font-size: 0.7777777778rem;
background-color: transparent;
border-color: #e9edf0;
padding-top: 5px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
width: 300px;
z-index: 1;
position: relative;
padding-left: 2ch;
}
My CSS style not working properly for IE 11 and Safari browsers. I searched every possible place to find an answer but failed. a lot of people talking about cross-browser CSS problem but no one did a working example and show how it's done properly. so if you guys know please help me to overcome this issue.
this is a part of my CSS I found not working for IE and safari
<style> .lap_drop_dwn:before {
content:"";
position: absolute;
right: 31px;
top: -10px;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 0px 10px 10px 10px;
border-color: transparent transparent rgb(0,0,0,0.5) transparent;
}
.drop_dwn_items {
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 50px;
background-color: rgb(0,0,0,0.5);
text-decoration: none;
line-height: 50px;
font-size: 22px;
color: #fff;
padding: 0 20px;
text-align: center;
}
</style>
this is a part I found, but my CSS file is quite large so there could be many so hard to find manually. it would be better if there is some script which automatically fixes those errors according to particular browser needs.
I've added a custom weather web part to my SharePoint page, but I want a hover message that displays additional info.
The pieces I've got worked out look great in Chrome, but not so great in IE 11. I need this to look the same in both - any tips?
.tooltip {
display:inline;
position: relative;
font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
font-size:9pt;
}
.tooltip:hover:after {
background: #333;
background: rgba(0,0,0,.8);
border-radius: 5px;
top: 6px;
color: #fff;
content: attr(title);
left: 5px;
padding: 5px 15px;
position: absolute;
z-index: 98;
width: 220px;
/*width: auto;*/
}
.tooltip:hover:before {
border: solid;
border-color: #333 transparent;
border-width: 0 6px 6px 6px;
top: 40px;
content: "";
left: 25px;
position: absolute;
z-index: 99;
}
Here's my JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/hcoa82wb/
The problem was the .tooltip tag using the display: inline When this is changed to display: inline-block both IE and Chrome began to show the messed up version of the tool-tip. From there it was just a matter of changing the top properties to display how you would want it. Here is your JS Fiddle updated. I left comments in the CSS code.
On the same note I would recommend using a different Class name other than .tooltip I would hate for you to run into issues in the future if someone adds a WebPart or a 3rd party SharePoint plug-in that uses the same class name. I've had issues with that in the past.
IE 10 and 11 hasn't disappointed me so much when it comes to css until today . .
The class base and triangle has about 1px gap in between in IE 9 - 11. The other 4 browsers are not showing the gap.
.base {
display: inline-block;
position: absolute;
bottom: 5px;
right: -8px;
background-color: #ffcc00;
color: #5A5A5A;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: bold;
padding: 2px 5px;
text-decoration: none;
margin:0;
}
.triangle {
width: 0px;
height: 0px;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 10px 0 0 11px;
border-color: transparent transparent transparent #DBB004;
display: inline-block;
position: absolute;
bottom: 24px;
right: -8px;
margin:0;
z-index: -1;
}
Here's a FIDDLE
This is not a bug. This is the correct rendering of display: inline-block; elements by the browser. The browser spaces inline-block elements using a width equal to a single white space character of the font (therefore, the larger the font, the wider the gap).
You can read how to solve this issue at CSS Tricks here. However, generally a negative margin-left of -4px (if your body font size is 16px) will remove the white space. For example:
.element {
display: inline-block;
}
.element ~ .element {
margin-left: -4px;
}
Edit
A better way of handling the white-space is to set font-size: 0; on the parent element and reset the font-size: 18px; or whatever your body font-size is on each of the elements with display: inline-block; elements`. This will handle browser zooming and hires displays better than the method I described above. Obviously, this strategy sometimes require an additional parent element, which might break your layout styling.
Change the .triangle margin to -1px.
Another way of solving it, is by putting the triangle inside the base-element. Easiest would to replace it with an ::after pseduo-element.
.base::after {
content: '';
width: 0px;
height: 0px;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 10px 0 0 11px;
border-color: transparent transparent transparent #DBB004;
display: inline-block;
position: absolute;
top: -10px;
right: 0px;
margin:0;
z-index: -1;
}

This is what it looks like in chrome:
This is what it looks like in FF:
This is the css I have applied to this element:
.styled-select5 {
margin-left: 20px;
height: 12px;
border: 1px solid #cccccc;
overflow: hidden;
width: 104px;
z-index: 1;
background: url(/images/registration/triangle.png) no-repeat right white;
display: block;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
}
.styled-select5 select {
padding-right: 42px;
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
text-indent: .01px;
text-overflow: '';
border: none !important;
width: 110% !important;
overflow: hidden;
z-index: 5;
height: 14px;
display: block;
padding-left: 3px;}
.styled-select5 select::-ms-expand{
display: none;}
.styled-select5 select option {
height: 20px;
width: 400px; }
.styled-select5.hidden {
display: none; }
I have been trying to figure this out for a while. In order for them to look similar I have to change the padding in FF to get the text to show properly. I am not sure why this is happening. Is there some difference in the way chrome and FF do this?
Each browser (on every OS) displays the HTML elements differently. The amount of styling that can override the defaults is also decided by the browser.
You cannot edit beyond what's permitted. If you happen to use selects for Safari, it'll look far more different and you cannot customize much there as well.
