Just use the scrollbar css things. That should work:

[code:1:e308511d14]
.niftyDropdown {
scrollbar-arrow-color: #12406F;
}
[/code:1:e308511d14]

I think that this will work.

well lazyjim was right about that. i just found out that its not possible to change dropdown arrow on css yet. i just asked my teacher (i'm a multimedia designer student btw) and he confirmed that it is not possible. he wanted to do it on his own website too, but it just could'nt be done... but thanks anyway.. the form looks little ugly with gray dropdown arrows but there is nothing i can do.

Sorry, I thought that the arrow used the same color as the scrollbars, so I thought that it might have worked with the scrollbar css stuff.

Maybe you could make a "dropdown" menu using divs and dhtml and just use an image for the arrow. It sounds complicated, but it probably is.
