<select> elements are a bit notorious in not allowing you all the CSS flexibility the other controls do. This is, as I understand it, because a <select> is treated essentially as a separate window. For instance, note that if you have a <div> and you position it over a <select>, regardless of how you try and set the z-index, the <select> will show through the <div>. The browser keeps the <select> at a higher z-index no matter what because it isn't like the other form controls exactly.
I think at one point IE literally spawned a separate browser thread for each <select>, as it did for each frame. I may be remembering that incorrectly, and certainly it isn't true any more in any case. All that possibly shotty memory aside though :), <select>'s don't always behave themselves as you'd like in terms of CSS. Trial and error and research is required. I unfortunately don't have an answer for your specific issue. -- Frank W.
