HTML HTML Forms Choosing Options Select Menus

1 Answer

Hi, Rene! :-)

If you're talking about the little check mark that is shown in the select list when the teacher re-opens the list, i think this is a browser feature, and the teacher seems to be on Chrome for MacOs.

The rendering of dropdown menus, checkboxes and radio buttons varies in looks between different browsers and operating systems. For instance, a dropdown menu like this, as well as date fields, are rendered like a "select wheel" on an iPhone. There's very little we can do to style elements like these, except creating our own in javascript/css.
