    Unhappy Any(!!) suggestions please

    Hello,

    I am still trying to get a solution to a problem which posted a while ago.

    Is there NO(!!!) way to bold individual items within a dropdown menu.

    IE... I have 5 items in my dropdown - some must be bold, other not!!

    Code:
    <select name="Test" size="1">
    <option value="This one is BOLD">This one is BOLD</option>
    <option value="This one is NOT">This one is NOT</option>
    <option value="This one is NOT">This one is NOT</option>
    <option value="This one is BOLD">This one is BOLD</option>
    <option value="This one is BOLD">This one is BOLD</option>
  </select>
    Please, any suggestions. My problem is that I have a list of about 20
    items in my dropdown, but these items must be "grouped" by category and
    I do not know how to clearly define the different categories/items within
    the dropdown - thats why I thought about using BOLD!! Any other suggestions??

    I MUST use a dropdown/select - it's not my choice!!

    Thanks,
    T

    You can try this though:

    ****************************************************
    <html>
    <head>
    <title></title>

    <style TYPE = "text/css">
    .category{background-color:blue;color:white;}
    </style>

    </head>
    <body>
    <form NAME = "frmSelect">

    <select name="Test" size="1">
    <option value="This one is BOLD" CLASS = "category">This one is BOLD</option>
    <option value="This one is NOT">This one is NOT</option>
    <option value="This one is NOT">This one is NOT</option>
    <option value="This one is BOLD" CLASS = "category">This one is BOLD</option>
    <option value="This one is BOLD" CLASS = "category">This one is BOLD</option>
    </select>

    </form>
    </body>
    </html>

    ****************************************************

    You can change the background color and font color in the select boxes.
