Drop down arrow img in firefox - firefox

I have tried to change the default arrow in drop down.
By adding this in css,
background-image:url("downArrow.jpg") no-repeat scroll right center transparent;
but the default arrow of drop down is not get replace in firefox, but in chrome its coming correctly.
How to fix this in firefox. Thanks in advance.

<SELECT> elements are not rendered by HTML, they're rendered by the browser/OS and styling them is quite limited. You cannot replace the arrow. All you can do is place an element on top of it and use script to fire the click as if it were part of the real drop-down.

Firefox TextArea does not scroll without scrollbars

I am using TextArea tags in my web project, that shall never show scrollbars.
This can easily be accomplished using
TEXTAREA { overflow: hidden }
All browsers that I need (IE, FF, Chrome) hide the scrollbars, as intended.
However Internet Explorer and Chrome will scroll to the current cursor position anyway, while Firefox does not scroll anymore at all. You can move the cursor into the invisible area and type, but you will not see, what you are doing.
Can this be solved?
Regards,
Steffen
EDIT: Because I have not found the source of the problem and I would really like to solve this, I leave this question open. However I found a really bad workaround: We now use overflow: scroll on that TEXTAREA, put it into a DIV, measure the width and height of the horizonal and vertical scrollbars, increase the size of the TEXTAREA by that values and set overflow:hidden to the DIV effectivly clipping away the scrollbars. They get invisible to the user but Firefox still scrolls. Not nice but working.
As far as I can tell, Firefox is behaving as I'd expect given the semantics behind overflow:hidden.
That said, and having read your comments above, you can quite easily mimick the behaviour you want with a small bit of jQuery.
Here's the code I've written:
$('textarea').bind("focus keyup", function(){
var $current = $(this);
$current.scrollTop(
$current[0].scrollHeight - $current.height()
);
});
This will basically scroll the textarea to the bottom when you focus on it and as you type. It may need tweaking to account for edits being done further up in the content.
Here's a Working Demo

Page with Ajax Loaded Div Doesn't Display Scrollbar

I have a page with a couple DIVs with contents loaded via ajax. After the contents loaded, the page doesn't dislay the scrollbar to show all the DIV contents (I can't scroll down to see the rest of the content.) I tried with Firefox and IE. All have the same problem. Is there away I can fix this?
Did you try to set style on the div or class?
overflow: auto;
Without seeing the HTML and CSS, all I can offer is a few suggestions:
Maybe you have unclosed tags.
The div style might prevent correct display. What's the overflow set to?
If you're loading into a div that's in a document in an iframe, you get this kind of stuff a lot.
Can you scroll around the div with TAB or by mouse-selecting its contents? Maybe the content isn't even being loaded fully.
In CSS I had the position of the div as fixed
div.query_res{
position:fixed;
top:40px;
left:445px;
}
changed it to
div.query_res{
position:relative;
top:40px;
left:445px;
}
And all was good.
This is quite old, but just in case some else gets here, as me, you have to redraw the page, as the calculations to add a scroll has been already made. So you have to tell the browser to redraw as the content size has changed. You can test if this is the case by changing the size of the window, if doing so gets back the scroll bar, then redraw after generating the DIV or whatever you are generating.

CSS drop-down being overlapped by content in IE7

I'm having this issue in IE7 with my drop down. Whenever I hover over my dropdown it goes up as soon as i hover over an element on top of the content. http://www.legrandconfectionary.com/gift-boxes/
I thought a position: relative on the header would solve the problem but on certain pages like the truffle flavors I have a tooltip effect that goes under the nav if done so. I'd really appreciate some help on this. Thanks!
There are several ways that you can fix this. Here's two:
Set the a tag to display: block, and then make your hover events based on the a instead of the li.
or
Specify a height other than auto or 100% for the li's

IE&/IE8 issues when loading a hover over link

In IE& and IE8 , when i click on a hover over link , it just flashes and then disappears . It is not even staying for a second . Can someone help and suggest a fix ?
if you using anchor within li element you should have them both with, if it's only a link give it display, height and width properties via CSS.
display:block;
height:xpx;
width:xpx;
This is happens because you probably do not hover over text inside of anchor but somewhere near while IE kind of browsers render anchor which has :hover pseudo class only on text once there is no size and display properties.

Jquery Jqmodal window IE position

I fixed the way the content was being pushed down with using the +position:absolute !important; hack that i've found. But now my question is no matter how i style the top (in the jqmWindow in IE it still seems to popup the window in the middle of the page. In FF however i've gotten the page to be more towards the top. The reason why i need to move this jqm window is that there is more info on the div (jqm) then will fit on the screen. Is there a way just to make the window a certain size and have scroll bars on the side if the content is larger? Thanks for the help.
you should be able to wrap the contents of the window in a div and set it's height, as well as overflow
div.wrap{
height:220px;
overflow:scroll;
}
