Styling select element (jQuery)

Question

I tried some plugins but they all come with their own styling which takes quite some time to get rid of. Is there any plugin with minimal styling (or a really simple way) to apply custom background to select element? I just need something very simple.

Thanks

Answer 1

With jQuery am using lines like this in my dom ready function :

$(".overlay").css("top","300px");

Goes like this in the header:

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
$(".overlay").css("backgroundColor": "#0f0");
}); 
</script>

.overlay is the class of the div i wanna change and then comes the css property and its value. Hope this helps.

I found this one. It even degrades automatically if JavaScript is disabled.
